OFFERED UP HIS BOY,
A Colored Preacher Sacrificed His Son
Like Abraham.


Oscar Williams, Il country colored preach
er, residing in settlement four miles from
Elba, Ala, left home with his ten year-old
son Isaac. He told a neghbor as he passed
that the Lord had appeared to him in
vision and commanded him to sacrifice his
boy.
The neighbor thought but little OF the old
mans remark for the moment, but half
hour afterward recollected that he had the
Sunday before preached on the story OF
Abraham and Isaac with singular earnest
ness, and expressed his willingness to obey
the Lords command to the extent that
Abraham hLd done.
He followed SIC old man and came upon
him In th.cket standing over his sons
dead body, which was strapped to n log.
He had bloody knife in his hand and his
eyes were raised heavenward. Blood still
flowed from the boys gaping throat, which
had been severed from ear to ear. When
asked why he had done the deed, tho
maniac declared that the Lord had com
manded him to do so, and then turned and
walked away, his neighbor being too daacd
to stop him
