He was a little guy, slightly hunch backed in his old age. He gazed at his
audience over half-moon spectacles, and held them enthralled. He was a
humorous and witty speaker in a lecture hall, and in Church a deeply moving
preacher. (He was a very popular star attraction in the Church of Scotland,
with which I was affiliated in my teens).

The only thing I have of his now is a daily bible study on Luke (there's a
series of these, one for every biblical book, mostly of high scholarly
standards).

He used a line much like that when we had him as a guest in our Youth
Fellowship (c. 1961).
