launched into one of his typical SER
mons, going from the sublime to the
ridiculous and making his hearers
laugh while wiping away tear drops.
"Be Ready Always TO Give an An

the hope of Christian the only solace
for the human soul, in comparison
with which wealth, fame and personal

"If | were the Lord, I'D swat some
