Kind of Chapel of Ease to the great congregation
above stairs-and the other in the street. In the
Meionson the scene was substantially the same as
that in the Temple it being packed as full and as
explosive with enthusiasm the larger meeting.
But the finest sight of all was the street from the
balcony. Such compact, living pavement OF hui

After the meetings at the Temple were over, the |
