  • The Inside of the Cup Vol 2.
    Winston S. Churchill / Winston SChurchill
    Sunday after Sunday Hodder looked upon the same picture, the winter light filtering through emblazoned windows, falling athwart stone pillars, and staining with rich colours the marble of the centre aisle. The organ rolled out hymns and anthems, the voices of the white robed choir echoed among the arches. And Hodder’s eye, sweeping over the decorous congre-gation, grew to recog...

  • The Inside of the Cup Vol 3.
    Winston S. Churchill / Winston SChurchill
    It was the last Sunday in May, and in another week the annual flight to the seashore and the mountains would have begun again. The breezes stealing into the church through the open casements wafted hither and thither the odours of the chancel flowers, and mingled with those fainter and subtler perfumes set free by the rustling of summer gowns. As on this day he surveyed his dec...

  • The Inside of the Cup Vol 4.
    Winston S. Churchill / Winston SChurchill
    Hodder fell asleep from sheer exhaustion, awaking during the night at occasional intervals to recall chimerical dreams in which the events of the day before were reflected, but caricatured and distorted. Alison Parr was talking to the woman in the flat, and both were changed, and yet he identified both: and on another occasion he saw a familiar figure surrounded by romping, rag...

  • The Inside of the Cup Vol 5.
    Winston S. Churchill / Winston SChurchill
    Life had indeed become complicated, paradoxical. He, John Hodder, a clergyman, rector of St. John’s by virtue of not having resigned, had entered a restaurant of ill repute, had ordered champagne for an abandoned woman, and had no sense of sin when he awoke the next morning! The devil, in the language of orthodox theology, had led him there. He had fallen under the influence of...

  • The Inside of the Cup Vol 6.
    Winston S. Churchill / Winston SChurchill
    Looking backward, Hodder perceived that he had really come to the momentous decision of remaining at St. John’s in the twilight of an evening when, on returning home from seeing Kate Marcy at Mr. Bentley’s he had entered the darkening church. It was then that his mission had appeared to him as a vision. Every day, afterward, his sense and knowledge of this mission had grown str...

  • The Inside of the Cup Vol 7.
    Winston S. Churchill / Winston SChurchill
    Pondering over Alison’s note, he suddenly recalled and verified some phrases which had struck him that summer on reading Harnack’s celebrated History of Dogma, and around these he framed his reply. 'To act as if faith in eternal life and in the living Christ was the simplest thing in the world, or a dogma to which one has to submit, is irreligious. . .It is Christian to pray th...

  • The Inside of the Cup Vol 8.
    Winston S. Churchill / Winston SChurchill
    The Bishop’s House was a comfortable, double dwelling of a smooth, bright red brick and large, plate-glass windows, situated in a plot at the western end of Waverley Place. It had been bought by the Diocese in the nineties, and was representative of that transitional period in American architecture when the mansard roof had been repudiated, when as yet no definite types had eme...

  • Dr. Jonathan
    Winston S. Churchill / Winston SChurchill
    This play was written during the war. But owing to the fact that several managers politely declined to produce it, it has not appeared on any stage. Now, perhaps, its theme is more timely, more likely to receive the attention it deserves, when the smoke of battle has somewhat cleared. Even when the struggle with Germany and her allies was in progress it was quite apparent to th...

  • The Story of the Malakand Field Force by Winston S. Churchill, World and Miltary History
    Sir Winston S. Churchill / Sir Winston SChurchill
    While I was attached to the Malakand Field Force I wrote a series of letters for the London Daily Telegraph. The favorable manner in which these letters were received, encouraged me to attempt a more substantial work. This volume is the result. The original letters have been broken up, and I have freely availed myself of all passages, phrases, and facts, that seemed appropriate...
