Logic is out of place when the question with a true-hearted man is, whether his brother man is to be saved or not.

Eighty-four, chiefly women and children, were liberated; and on being told that they were now free, and might go where they pleased, or remain with us, they all chose to stay; and the Bishop wisely attached them to his Mission, to be educated as members of a Christian family.
