and was not carried any farther. It is edited with notes and 

 supplements to each chapter by M. D. Petre. 



The second volume, which takes up the story where the first ends, 

 deals chiefly with the storm and stress period of his later years. 

 Large use is made of his own notes, and of his letters, of which a 

 great number have been lent by correspondents of all shades 

 of thought. Various documents of importance figure in this later 

 volume, in which the editor aims at making the history as complete 

 and objective as possible. Incidentally some account is given of the 

 general movement of thought, which has been loosely described as 

 " modernism," but the chief aim of the writer will be to describe the 

 part which Father Tyrrell himself played in this movement, and the 

 successive stages of his mental development as he brought his 

 scholastic training to bear on the modern problems that confronted 

 him. The work ends with his death on July 15, 1909, and the 

 events immediately subsequent to his death. 



THROUGH FACTS TO FAITH. 



By the Rev. J. M. THOMPSON, 



FELLOW AND DEAN OF DIVINITY, MAGDALEN COLLEGE, OXFORD ; 

 AUTHOR OF " MIRACLES IN THE NEW TESTAMENT," ETC. 



One Volume. Crown 8vo. 35. 6d. net. 



It will be remembered that a year ago Mr. Thompson published a 

 book called " Miracles in the New Testament," in which he con- 

 tended that the miraculous elements in the Gospels and the Acts are 

 not historically trustworthy, and that they may be surrendered with- 

 out prejudice to Christianity. The book was attacked by the Church 

 papers, Mr. Thompson's licence was withdrawn by one Bishop, and 

 he was inhibited by another. Being given the opportunity of deal- 

 ing further with the subject in a course of lectures delivered at St. 

 Margaret's Church, Westminster, in Lent of the present year, he 

 repeated his argument against the belief in miracles, and worked out 

 more in detail the application of his views to theology and Christ - 

 ology. These lectures, considerably rewritten and revised, are now 

 published under the title "Through Facts to Faith." They are 

 headed, "Miracles," " Providence," "Jesus Christ," "Redemption," 

 and "Worship." They form, as a whole, a constructive sequel to 

 the critical argument of the previous book. Not retracting a word 

 of his former contentions, Mr. Thompson tries to show that the 

 essence of the Christian faith is not weakened, but strengthened, by 

 accepting the conclusions of historical and scientific criticism.
