with men from the streets, who were
attracted by the flaring signs outside
the basement entrance, advertising

The preacher got some enthusiastic
yells when he delivered himself Of
especially caustic epigrams. A few Of
his choice ones were as follows:

His sermon dealt chiefly with the
glories of unorthodox religion. He
calls himself free-will Baptist, and
frequently broke of short in his talk

the narrow platform, his long iron-gray
