Descriptive text from separate pages at the back which cannot be supplied (subject to any spelling errors due to the OCR program used)THE BAPTISM OF A BELIEVER: A SCENE ON A YORKSHIRE HILLSIDE This rather strange scene represents a ceremony of the Baptist body, according to whose special tenets the rite of baptism can only be administered to persons who are "converted" and are believers in the doctrines of the Christian faith, and not to infants. In this instance the minister, with the person to be baptised, steps down into a little open-air baptistry, and each candidate in succession is fully immersed. The most inclement season of the year is no obstacle to the performance of this religious duty; and on a recent occasion it is recorded that five young men and one young woman were immersed in an outdoor baptistry in Yorkshire in the month of February, when much snow had to be cleared away in order to approach the water.
