They invited also George Sherwood Eddy, preeminent among the exhorters of Americans and others, who speaks always with clenched fist, contracted brow, tight-drawn lips. He bullies men's consciences, he stirs their emotions. In almost every land, he has exhorted for peace, brotherhood, personal purity, "taking Christ seriously...
