The Way of All Flesh by Samuel Butler: “CHAPTER LIX Before going down into the kitchen to convert the tinker Ernest ran hurriedly over his analysis of Paley's evidences, and put into his pocket a copy of Archbishop Whateley's "Historic Doubts." Then he descended the dark rotten old stairs and knocked at the tinker's door.”
The Damnation of Theron Ware by Harold Frederic: “Finally he did take down "Paley's Evidences," and seated himself in the big armchair--that costly and oversized anomaly among his humble house-hold gods; but the book lay unopened on his knee, and his eyelids half closed themselves in sign of revery.”
