Excerpt from The Young Parson
It was now thought that some immediate action was required for the good of the congregation. The letter to Mr. Meagre said: The sacred oracles have long been dumb. Zion is languishing; our church is in debt, and our people scattered like sheep with out a shepherd. The ministers Of our Church around here say it is a shame we can't keep a minister longer. But no one ever stayed over two years since the time Of Old Mr. Huguenot. He built the church, you know; but he had so many funerals that bad winter, that he got the hemorrhage Of the lungs right in the pulpit, which our people didn't like in him, and so we thought we had better get a stronger man.
