THE PASTOR SPRINTED.

He Made a Good Run In Record Time
With Plenty Of Reason.
One OF the traditional stories of the
town of Fairfield, Conn, recounts a
wild dash from the pulpit made by
a worthy and beloved pastor of the
Episcopal flock, DR.. Labaree.
1t was ON a Sunday more than a hun
dred years ago. The service had been
read, the prayers said, the hymns sung.
and the parson began his sermon. AS
he proceeded his gestures became very
energetic. He brought his right hand
down with great force. Then he turned
pale. cleared the pulpit stairs at a
bound. dashed out of the church door
and ran toward the pond short dis
lance away.
The congregation followed in bewiI-
dered pursuit and saw their venerable
pastor with flying robe rush into the
water until it came to his neck. Then,
turning round. he faced his astonished
audience and said:
Dearly beloved brethren. / am not
crazy. as no doubt many OF you think
but yesterday at the drug store l bought
a bottle of nitric acid and carelessly
left it in my pocket today.
My last gesture broke the bottle.
knew the suffering the acid would cause
when it penetrated my clothing and
rushed for the water to save myself
pain"
He drew several pieces Of glass from
his pocket In witness Of the tale. Then
he dismissed the company and hurried
h0ne.
