In support of this viewpoint a correspondent of The London Times writes: “Some years ago, when the Baptists were carryin on a special mission iii Leith,-»5ie port of Edinburgh, they .secured a notorious had-character, who ‘joined them and was diily bap- tized. _ An old friend, who' knew him only too well, felt interested, and enquired what exactly had tak- en place. lie was assured that the man had been duly ‘dipped’ before admission. He asked, ‘One dip ?’ ‘()h, yes; just one dip.’ Holding up his hands in astonishment, lie ex- claimed, ‘One dip; if you had an- chored him off the end of Leith pier for six weeks you might have 'nad a chance, but one dip will make no difference to a man like hini.’ ” ._,__.- .. .. ‘lfill-_,l-’»roduce_ » l'_lis_t_¢_11i_c Scene- m0_ 2.-'rue historic #mario Mmini sir navia isomya ciir!n"~on~t.he ueeii Ellmbetli when the Qpfme.n__de?p5ates _arranged ,l'0r,_t.he following statement: F‘orelgn'ers the qilrrpnder of the German fleet, la to beipleeéd on canvas by Slr John livery of the -Royal Academy.
