Novel Hint From the Pulpit — 235
The Seneca Advertiser tells the following:—The pastor of a certain church not a thousand miles from this place a few Sabbaths ago, when about to baptize a child, reproved the flock in the following fashion:—“My dear people, I fear that you are neglecting parental duties, as this is only the second child presented for baptism during my pastoral connection with this church.” (Sensation among the crinoline.)
