The pastor introduced Mr. Dale, who had been a Missionary to Mexico for ten years, and, having an eye to business, added that he was writing a book which ho hoped members of the congregation might buy. For about one hour, or perhaps a little q shorter time, the Missionary recited statements showing the degradation of the 0 Catholics of Mexico.
