worship and the fine ID the most severe
the law provides.
Sam Is go years old. On Wednesday
last he drifted into the Garrett Park
Church while prayer-meeting was in
progress and expressed desire to be-
come converted. His apparent sincerity
led Mrs. May Dunsing to take compassion
upon him, and by way Of putting her
sympathy with this brand piuci<ed from
the burning upon practical basis she
took him to her home.
Al the Dunsing home Sam fell from
grace. Mrs. Dunsing was preparing a
late supper for the family, the principal
dish for which was ham and cabbage.
oh. boy!
While waiting for the arrival OF the
family Mrs. Dunsing retired to her room
for a short nap. leaving Sam IN the
kitchen with the ham and the cabbage
and the smell Of the cooking.
When Mrs, Dunsing returned Sam was
still there. but the ham and the cabbage
