their church at the usual hour Of worship in
the forenoon, and waited patiently for the
clergyman to make his appearance. The
congregation remained thus quietly waiting.
until one o'clock, when they started out to
hunt up their shepherd. To their great sur
prise they found him and his excellent wife
at work burning brush in the field, entirely
forgetful of the fact that the Sabbath had
arrived. His chagrin may be easily im-
aeined
