Made Crazy by . Revival.

ERwCOMERsTOwE, Ohio, Jan. 49,
Henry Stephens ia q prominent farmer,
living near Bridgeville, five miles south
Of this place. During the past two
weeks religious revivsls have been held
in the vicinity, and a few days ago
Stephens attended one Of the meetings.
He professed religion, and on the
following evening apparently became
converted in sudden manner. He
acted strangely, and when he reached
his home was maniac.
A young man who boarded with
Stephens recently injured his kneecap,
and was suffering from . severe lame.
ness. When s ephens entered the
house he ordered the lame
mau to kneel and pray. The
young man knelt on one knee, but this
would not satisfy Stephens, who he
came enraged and forced the poor fel-
low to bend his injured leg.
Stephens then seized an old family y
Bible, and his four.year. old child, and
rushing out OF the house, mounted
horse and rode at break-neck pace for
Ave miles in driving snow storm,
holding the book under one arm and
his child In the other. On his return,
his wife who was in i'll health, was at.
tackled and chased around the house.
She was so ally frightened that she
died. Yesterday she was buried with
her infant. Stephens is rational at
times, but is raving maniac at
others.
