Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Conditions and Prospects of the Protestant Episcopal Church Such being our sad condition, what must we think of those who endeavor to cover up the whole matter, and cry peace, peace, when there is no peace? What must We think of such men? IS it not to be feared that the character of too many of them'may be learned in the parable of the tares While men slept the enemy came and sowed tares. These professed friends of the church wish us to sleep on. Why, say they, disturb the peace of the church?'
