Excerpt from Charles George Gordon
And downward, into the broader light of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, we see these Gordons steadily falling into grander groups, where the issues are faith and king, and the rewards are the prison and the block their names standing out in times of political storm like guiding lights that tell us, without further need of search, where the old landmarks lie.
He is a Gordon who rallies round him whatever is left in Scotland of loyalty and honour, when the preach ing of Knox, the intrigues of Cecil, and the murders of Murray have upset the throne of Mary Stuart, and all but brought Scotland under the dominion of Elizabeth.
