rcvivalist and singer Of revival songs
noted for bis power Of song in fact.
4 smith in the county seat. the centre
Of the circuit. learning that the preach
er's horse would not be shod, meeting
the divine one day, said. IF you'll
bring that horse to my shop tomorrow
and follow my instructions Ill shoe
him all round, and it won't cost YOU a
cent Accordingly the preacher was
on time at the smith s shop with his re-
fractory stced. and after the animal
had been divested Of saddle. blankets.
and all but the bride, the smith said:
.Now. hold your horse by the rein,
close to the briile-bit, and sing one OF
your liveliest canlp-meetine songs, and
when that is ended strike up another.
and keep on singing until finish shoe
ing the horsc.' The preacher obeyed,
and to the astonishment Of all the ami
nal was passive until the work was
