PRAYER ANSWERED.
A Universalist Preachers Tongue Pal.

A Universalist Preachers Tongue PaIsied.
The Cincinnati Gazette has just published
these precious documents
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. TO- 1S70.-DeGT Ham
mond:-l send you my fathers letter, which l
received just before leaving home. The facts
as stated them to you are all correct. The
event transpired more than fifty years ago. IL
was known to many at the time, and there could
be no mistake about it. 1t was at Athens, Pa,
during revival of religion.
j. Parks, the Universalist minister, preached
there sometimes, but never before had made an
appointment at the same time with my father.
The fact that he did 80 caused Christians to feel
that his object was to divert the attention and
thus hinder the work. They gave themselves to
earnest prayer that his efforts might be brought
to naught, and his mouth be stopped. My
father, knowing the feelings of his church and
deeply sympathizing with them. In his prayer
before the sermon prayed most fervently with
reference to this very case that God would stop
the mouths of false teachers. The Universalist
minister opened his services and was permitted
to proceed so far rs to announce his text, and
He was taken home, and never preached another
sermon.
These are facts. Let those who hear and read
them account for them as they please; for my
part, believe them TO furnish a remarkable in-
stance Of answer to prayer.
Yours, most truly, WM. G. WIsNER,
Pastor of Presbyterian Church of Lockport,
n. Y.
Ihe following is from the 1ather OF Mr.. WIS
ner, now about ninety years of age, aud who il
well known to manyin Cincinnati;-
ITHACA, Jan. 8, 1S70.--My Dear Son:-I have
just received your letter. / cannot now give
you the date of the event, but it occurred al
Athens when / was pastor of that church. There
was little revival there at the time. A Mr.
Parks was the Universalist minister. He made
an appointment TO preach in the village at the
same day and hour of my regular service, which
he had not done before. We all, who were
Christians, felt that his object was to keep sin
ners from hearing the truth In my first prayer
| besought the Lord TO stop the mouths of false
| teachers and not suffer them to prevent the sal
walton OF sinners. Mr.. Parks commenced ser
| vice at the same hour, and after singing an(
| praying, named his text when his tongue wa!
paralyzed, and he was carried home and neye
| preached again.
