A Tlrglnfa Metaphor.
This is somehow a figure that lingers
In the imagination :
In a Virginia church, at tho end of a
revival, there were three persons who
wero eipcrted to nnite with the church.
Only two wcro present; the third, quite
an old lady, was prevented by tho in
clemency of tho evening. A lav
brother was called on to pray, which
lie did very fervently, "especially for
the sister with ono foot in tho grave
nnd the other galloping on to eternity."
