The portents in 1896 were vastly more dangerous than those of 1860, when peace and internecine war hung in the balance.

Suffice it to say here that during this long internecine war each achieved victories and each suffered defeats.

The result has been a constant internecine war in the Church, by which Freethought has largely profited.

It is ever engaged in internecine war, and will any day forego a square meal for the sake of a fight.
