Golden Hours: An Illustrated Magazine for Any Time and All Times
1881
p. 504
In the context of comments on a book by F. Morell Holmes on Exeter Hall, the reviewer comments on a recent rally held there to protest Bradlaugh’s 1880 election to Parliament. Quoting from The Rock (a Church of England paper):
The reviewer goes on to suggest that “no one who respects the apostolic injunction to ‘fear God’ and ‘honour the king’ given to Christians under the inspiration of God himself, will neglect to sign petitions to the House of Commons for the exclusion of Mr. Bradlaugh from Parliament, forms for which will be forwarded to any applicant by The Protestant Alliance, 9, Strand, London, W.C.”
There’s really no arguing with this point of view, which of course is pretty much Bradlaugh’s point.
