' We would remark just here that a synopsis of his sermons gives but a faint impression of what is said.

The elect are the whosoever wills and the non-elect are the whosoever wonts. Don't believe God was ever in a passion. How bad does a boy have to get before a mother ceases to love him ? Don't believe everybody will goto heaven; but there is not a man in hell that didn't have a good, fair chance. The preacher, in thi sermon, dealt stunning blows to tho whisky evil.
