Excerpt from Personal Reminiscences
On the way from Agawam to Stratford We spent a night, and my mother and brother left me in bed while they Went to hear a sermon by Elder Knapp, the great revivalist. At the breakfast-table I heard them tell What happened at the meeting. That morning Elder Knapp had been in court on a charge of inciting a riot at histumultuous revival meetings. In his sermon that even ing he described the scene in court that morning, where he said, It looked as if all hell had boiled over and this was the scum of it. While he was speaking, some one in the gallery fired an air-gun, which broke a pulpit lamp on one side of the speaker. The gun was found where it had been thrown from a gallery window, but the culprit was never discovered.
