Claims of an Authorized Servant

By Editor

WE have received a pamphlet in which the author makes the most extravagant assertions about the coming of Christ, asserting that he knows the exact time of the advent. He styles himself the "Authorized Servant of Jesus Christ," and professes to speak by special authority. He also deals in the testimony of the pyramids, which seems quite appropriate for a crank of his cast. By reason of such the way of truth is evil spoken of. But his lunacy ought to be harmless, for no person with a well-balanced mind can possibly be affected by such rantings.
