Excerpt from The Relation of Christianity to the Conflict Between Capital and Labour: Burney Prize Essay; 1894 The present Essay obtained the Burney Prize at Cambridge in 1894. Since that time it has been revised, with the kind permission of the Examiners. It attempts to deal with the great principles and motives which have acted persistently on the Labour struggle during the Christian centuries. To grasp these motives freshly in the present, and to show how they reach the very heart of our social difficulties, has been the writer's wish. I am most deeply indebted to the writings of F. D. Maurice and the Bishop of Durham, Dr. Westcott. My gratitude is due to the Reverend A. Caldecott for looking through the essay, and to the Rev. C. G. Hopkinson and R. J. Milward.
