the same With other ministers. There are scores
and scores OF families In this church whom

TO heir bones at hours when they are there
Thus. many gentlemen OF my church have for
years remained personal strangers TO me- While
The ladies Of their hou ehold are my familiar
scquaiI taLces. This il an evil, and | would
