Mitigating Anguish. "One of the most interesting aspects of the group," Philadelphia Director Evan Turner points out, "is Eakins' approach to the 19th century Catholic personality. There was a great religious crisis at that time. As a man who had stood up to criticism himself, he sympathized with men who followed a similar course."

Everybody wanted the Rossenray in the combine mine-but who would pay for Arndt's allowance?
