exit, — a door that opens inward. Suddenly, in the
midst of the crowd, a voice rings out: "Back,
stand back from the door ; the closer you press
against it, the less the chance of escape ; stand
back ; that is your only chance of safety ! "
"Whether I am alone in understanding this com-
mand, or whether others with me also hear and
understand, I have but one duty, and that is, from
the moment 1 have heard and understood, to fall
back from the door and to call upon every one to
obey the voice of the saviour. I va&y be suffocated,
I may be crushed beneath the feet of the multitude,
I may perish ; my sole chance of safety is to do the
one thing necessary to gain an exit. And I can do
nothing else. A saviour should be a saviour, that
is, one who saves. And the salvation of Jesus is
the true salvation. He came, he preached his doc-
trine, and humanity is saved.
