FOR HEADERS OFT OF
IHE WAV.
Dr. David Sullins of the HoUton
Coiifeienee was a poiular and elo
queent priacher. The following in
cident is worth relating and has nev
er been publo-hed so far as I know.
At a campmeeting in Virginia some
years ago Dr. Sullins delivered the
morning sermon, the theme was th?
death of .Moses on Mount Nebo ; as
the preacher warmed up he drew a
graphic picture of the scene. The
grand old legislator and lawgivm who
had led t''e nation forty years in the
wilderness, pleads most pathetically
with Jehovah to allow Caleb or Josh
ua to go with him to the top of the
mountain. A man sitting near the
pulpit who was three sheets in the
i wind b "ame so w rought up with
emotion that he cried out with deep
patlios ill irs voice anil the tears i un
