Moreover, a personal allusion in a first sermon, by a stranger, is something so out of place and indelicate, that I cannot for a moment believe that your inference is correct." "While I have the best of reasons for believing that I complain of him justly. He's been long enough here to visit a certain family, fond of tittle-tattle, that I could name." "The Harrisons?" "Yes." "I hope you are mistaken." "No; I am not mistaken. C--was personal, and distinctly so. And the Harrisons are at the bottom of the matter. To say the least, he has acted in very bad taste. Charity should have prompted him to wait until he could have heard both sides of the story." "I agree with you, fully, if your allegation be correct. But I must hope that you are in error." "No. I have the best of reasons for what I allege." "To whom did the personality apply?" "To myself, if the truth must be spoken." "Is it possible?" "Yes--to myself." "That places the matter in rather a serious light, Mr. Grant." "It does. And I think I have reason to complain." "You ought to be certain about this matter."
