Description
Preface: INFIDEL! I put the word in capitals, because it is my new name, and I want to get used to it. INFIDEL! The name has been bestowed on me by several Christian gentlemen as a reproach, but to my ears it has a quaint and not unpleasing sound. Infidel! ?The notorious infidel editor of the Clarion? is the form used by one True Believer. The words recurred to my mind suddenly, while I was taking my favourite black pipe for a walk along ?the pleasant Strand,? and I felt a smile glimmer within as I repeated them.
