Stuart. "The wages of sin is death."
Brown. I would not have made such a remark to you if you had been a prisoner, and wounded, in my hands.
A Bystander. Do you consider this a religious movement?
Brown. It is, in my opinion, the greatest service man can render to God.
Bystander. Do you consider yourself an instrument in the hands of Providence?
Brown. I do.
Bystander. Upon what principle do you justify your acts?
Brown. Upon the Golden Rule. I pity the poor in bondage that have none to help them: that is why I am here; not to gratify any personal animosity, revenge, or vindictive spirit. It is my sympathy with the oppressed and the wronged, that are as good as you and as precious in the sight of God.
