Lowell's American Church of the future, is fulfilling a legiti- mate mission in trying to rescue the fallen and dis- abled. Christ may be trusted to know the errand on which he came. He says that his errand was to seek Digitized by Google 96 A FREE LANCE. and to save that which was lost. This errand he ex- pressly committed in turn to his disciples. But the word " malingerers " introduces us into the presence of an unfamiliar classification. The gospel of the New Testament distinguishes no " ma...lingerers." According to Jesus, we are all of us the "wounded." Some of us wounded, to be sure, have a strange whim of feigning to be perfectly sound. But there are no really sound ones, in Christ's view, that could dishonestly feign to be wounded. In the scheme of " The Cathedral," on the other hand, men appear set off into three different classes. There are the " wounded," the " malingerers," and "the strong." Mr. Lowell seems to imply that t^e strong at present remain outside, and scorn a Church composed of the recovered or recovering wound- ed, busy at no nobler work than that of succoring their prostrate brethren on the field.
