"The voice at midnight came, He started up to hear; A mortal arrow pierced his frame, He fell--but felt no fear. "Tranquil amidst alarms, It found him on the field, A veteran slumbering on his arms, Beneath his red-cross shield." James Montgomery. OON after General Hutchinson returned to England and began to settle down a little, he entered on congenial work for his Lord and Master. Besides what he did locally, the two Societies which were most to his taste and feelings were the Church Missionary Society and the British and Foreign Bible Society.

About the Author:
A prolific and influential scholar known to believers and skeptics alike as "the father of modern creation science," Dr. Henry M. Morris truly was a man of science and a staunch man of God. He was even said to have set the terms of debate about evolution for the second half of the 20th century by one Pulitzer Prize-winning academician. Dr. Morris began his serious study of the Bible in the 1930s and authoring books in the 1940s, but it was his landmark work, co-authored with Dr. John Whitcomb, titled The Genesis Flood in 1961 that influenced generations to begin discovering the fallacies of evolution and the biblical truth of creation.
