What it actually indicates is that spiritualism itself is a grotesque and illegitimate activity, a bearer of good tidings that suddenly and inexplicably mutates into a monster.
It may well be that the agricultural labourers will shout the glad tidings from hedge to hedge.
I believe that it would be prudent to take a deep breath and count a long 10 before commenting on tidings such as that.
The people have been buoyed up in expectation of bright and cheerful tidings.
People now are disposed to take the same view about bad tidings—not so much to be disheartened as to dislike the messenger.
After all these high hopes, there came the tidings which depressed us all.
I think we shall have to wait and see whether these gloomy tidings are borne out by the facts.
I am only the carrier of good tidings.
