Proverbs 3:16 Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honor. Sir Henry Mitchell, a distinguished Methodist layman, made an interesting speech at Bradford, in which he referred to the late Sir Isaac Holden, who was a life-long Methodist. He died respected by every one who knew him, and more than a millionaire. Sir Henry went to see Sir Isaac a little while before his death, and said to him, "You owe most to your religion and to Methodism." To which Sir Isaac replied, "Everything." Sir Isaac added that his study of Methodist doctrine and experience had exercised a most wholesome discipline upon his mind, and had contributed very largely — perhaps more than any other influence that had been brought to bear upon his character — to his success in life.
