UNUSUAL.
The squire's son had just been ordained, and on the following Sunday he was to take the service in his native village. He was a young man and very nervous. However, he did his best, and returned to the vestry having accomplished the service to his own satisfaction.
" I think I got through the service without a mistake, John?" he remarked to the 013 clerk, who was helping him off with his surplice. "It was first-rate, Master Dick," said the old man, with enthusiasm, " I don't know as I ever heard It better." After a pause he added, " but the old parson, he never gives us the evening service in the morning."
