/"\NE NEW YEAR'S
^^ Eve a number of
loafers and drinkers
were assembled in
the bar of a public-
house. Liquor was
flowing fast and furiously, and everybody was feeling
boisterous. Samuel
Russell, a minister's
wayward son, had
drunk considerably,
but was not yet under the influence of
the stuff; it always
took a great deal to
intoxicate him.
During a pause in the conversation Joe Allen
came in. He was a hardened toper, with a terrible hatred for all kinds of religious things.

" We will now sing a hymn," said Allen, in

young preacher in the town that it brought
soars of laughter from the crowd. And he
" lined" one of the hymns of the day, with
profane variations, the others joining in uproariously.
" Brother Samuel Russell will now preach
the sermon," announced Joe, " and we trust it
will be for the spiritual good of us all."
It was a terribly disagreeable suggestion to
young Russell, and he tried in every way he
could to evade it. He even attempted to rush
the door, but they caught him and stood him
up at one end of the room behind a table.
" Preach now, or treat all around," they
shouted; and as he had not the money with
him to do the latter, he reluctantly consented
to " say a few words," but complaining that he
had no text.
