Excerpt from Testimony to the Truth
These chapters are, in the main, an adaptation of discourses delivered, at one time or another, in St. Mary's Church, Evanston. They were in tended as answers to questions frequently asked the writer by inquirers into Catholic doctrine, or by Catholic students who were often called upon to defend their Faith.
My aim has been to simplify, to the best of my ability, Catholic teaching on these subjects. [i make no pretense to learning, and I have striven to avoid all technical language. My hope is that the average reader may be able to understand what I have written.
