The death Of James w. Paul. the
Philadelphia banker, recalls this story
which he told at a Philadelphia club
long ago: 81 was going home one
night late and saw man who had
evidently looked too deep into the cup
making frantic but unsuccessful efforts
TO open a door with a latch key. After
looking at him a few minutes l decided
20 help the man, who was not so far
gone as to have forgotten his polite
ness, for before entering the house
through the door which l succeeded in
opening he asked my name and thank
ed me. l proceeded on my way, but
had gone only few steps when L
heard some one call, Mr.. Paul! Mr..
PANT I turned, and there was my
friend Of the latch key coming toward
me with unsteady gait. When ne reach
ed me he put one hand affectionately
on my shoulder, and, looking me in
the face, said: Say, did you ever get
an answer TO that long letter you wrote
10 the Thessalonians? "
