Bro. Gray of the Morgan City
Free Press has had bis nocturnal
slumbers disturbed by the reli-
gious orgies Of a colored congre-
cation worshipping in the vicinity
and gives vent to his feelings in
the s%uhjoined remarks which will
apply equally we'll to Bro. Mitch
ellis congregation in this locality:
Every night, just about the
time we are prepared to drop OH
to sleep, some re!igiously enthnsed
member Of Bro. Wilson's congre-
CATION shrieks ont. ''Hallaluiah!
"Oh! Glory! or "Bless the Lord!'
and Immediately the whole audi
ence cry out at the top of their
voices, "Amen!' That wakes the
"scion" and he yells. The better
halt tries to put his lordship to
sleep, but the more she tries the
more he endeavors by prolonged
screams to evidence his determina-
ton to make as much unnecessary
noise as the congregation oppo-
site. He gets spanked f; we ex-
postulatc =; then we get remined
that she knows what she's
about--and the manner in which
she imparts the information fully
convinces MS that she does. The
sequel is easily told-we roll and
tumble at least a whole hour be-
fore quiet can be restored and sleep
once more induced toreturn. Now
we earnestly hope that if we are
to have any more "distracted
meetings" they will be conducted
with less noise.
The following from the Marks
vile Bulletin OF Sept. rs will per-
haps prove interesting to some Of
