WHEN THE BISHOP DANCED.
Dr. Wiuuiugton Ingram, Bishop of Loudon, is a man of many accomplishments, and not the least of them is dancing. It was during a recent visit to .an East End hospital, where he knows everybody, and everybody knows him, that an old* woman lying in one of the beds recognised him. Her eyes lit up with subdued pleasure at seeing her one-time minister, and she recalled to him the dance she had with him at some entertainment which ho had give when a junior clergyman in an East End parish. His parishioners were poor, and the life they led was one long, dreary round of sameness, so his lordship entered heartily into any of their amusements. “I suppose,” said the old woman of the North, ‘‘ye’ll no dance wi’ us any mair; but a’ the same I’m vorra, verra glad to ken ye’re gettin’ on. ” Dr. Ingram had just been made Bishop of Loudon.
