'llowed by Mrs. King, who in
'rmed the congregation that she
ad not come out to the park at
er own volition, but that it was at
ne instance of the Lord. An eight

18th water from a neighboring we'll,
nd placed on the platform. Then
lrs. King sunk to her knees and
rayed most earnestly for the Lord

unity to perform a miracle, and
be wanted Him to come and show
lis power, and quicken the unbe-
evers. The tears rolled down her
heeks, but still there was no change

[rs. King prayed most fervently,
ut the supplication was in vain,
nd she again invited the audience

as no wine. There were plying
zpressions among those present,
