AHD QUERIES. Bfedrj0 BlovvjibfcMt and Gcnc XXXVII. LAW SON'S ISLAND. In a recent number of Notes and Queries, the Question ia asked, "Where in the Susquehanna was Lawson's Island When the Pennsylvania Canal was being constructed, a. dam was thrown across the West Branch, five miles below Manor, from which it took its name, the Muncy dam.

The breastwork of this dam crossed the head of Law son 8 Island, which in a short time was worn away by the action of the waters, and now has become a swirling rapid. If my memory is correct, there were from twenty five to thirty acres of rich land partially cultivated, with banks well wooded. A man by the name of Miller or Wirtz lived there nntil driven away by high floods and gradual destruction of the island. Yes, Wirtz was the name; he received the soubriquet or "Smorry, for what reason 1 cannot say. The Lawsons had a shad fishery there, and at one time drew in over 2.400 shad.

not counting the roe shad, which they al ways threw back. The people came from the back country in carts and wagons, and carried the fish away, salting them down for winter use. Nothing is left of the island now but a slight bar, which, is only discerned at low water. Mr. William Lawson, of Milton, is a son of the Lawson who owned the island.

HAMMOND AND KELLY. In the list of burials at Chillisquaque Churchyard which you published in Notes and Queries (No. 34), appear the names of David Hammond and Jane Hammond. They were husband and wife, and each took an active interesting part in the Revolutionary struggle. David Hammond was born about 1749, and enlisted in Captain John Lowdon's company of Riflemen, organized at Northumberland in June, 1775.

He was appointed sergeant of the company; became second lieutenant in the First Pennsylvania regiment of the Continental Line, September 24th, 1778; promoted to First Lieutenant December 8th, 1778; and served throughout the war; was severely wounded in Wayne's attack' upon the blockhouse at Bergen Point, N. in 1780, from the effects of which he never fully recovered. He died April 27, 1801. Jane Hammond was born May 13, 1764, the daughter of Robert and Elizabeth Kelly Hanna. Her parents settled in the western part of Cumberland (afterwards Westmoreland) county, about the time the lands of the New Purchase were thrown open for settlement, and there Robert Hanna attempted to establish a town.

His settlement was called Hannas town, and was the first seat of justice west of the Allegheny Mountains, being made the county seat of Westmoreland, when that county was organized in 1773. July 13, 1782, it was attacked and burned by the British and Indians, the latter under command of Guyasutha. Some of the inhabitants were killed and many carried off as prisoners, and taken to Canada. Among the latter were Jane Hanna, and her mother. Through the efforts of some friends in Montreal they were released, and returned home the following December.

People shudder at the tales of Monte Carlo suicides, but look on with perfect equanimity while friends and loved ones commit just ascertain suicide by neglecting their health. Trifling disorders of the digestion persistently neglected lead to impurity of the blood, the tissues of the body are imperfectly nourished, and emaciation and debility follow.

In the case of that dread disease, consumption, imperfectly nourished tissue is built up in the lungs, forming a suitable soil for the germs of that deadly disease. One seventh of all the deaths each year are due to consumption. This fearful death rate could be easily Avoided if the proper remedy was resorted to, A sure preventive and cure of consumption is found in Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It cures 9S per cent, of all cases.

It corrects all disorders of digestion, invigorates the liver, and makes the blood pure and plentiful. It is the great blood maker, flesh builder, and nerve invigorator. It gets into the blood and acts directly upon the lungs, building up healthy tissue and driving out all impurities and disease germs. Thousands have testified to its wonderful merits. Druggists sell it.

I feel that I must write you telling you of the great benefits derived from the use of your Golden Medical writes Miss Laura Piersel, of East Bethlehem. Washington Pa. Last summer my friends thought I was surely going into consumption, and having tried doc rs before with no satisfactory results and hearing your medicine so highly spoken of, I took pile bottle. My cough left me altogether with ail the distressing symptoms, and in fact the Cure seemed almost miraculous to all who saw me. I cannot say enough in praise of the medicine, and have done much to induce others to use it." aysw wifa Ji.am liil I A.

A PLAGUE OF THE NIGHT. ITCHINO FILES AND OTHER RECTAL TROUBLES EASILY CURED BV A NEW AND SAFE METHOD. A Remarkable Number of Cares Made by the Pyramid Pile Cure. About one person in every four suffers from some form of rectal disease. The most common and annoying is itching piles, indicated by warmth, slight moisture and intense, uncontrollable itching in the parts affected.

The usual treatment has been some simple ointment or salve which sometimes give temporary relief, but nothing like a permanent cure can be expected from such siinerficial treatment. The only nermanent cure for itching piles yet discovered is the Pyramid Pile Cure, not only for itching piles, but for every other form of piles, blind, bleeding or protruding. The first application gives instant relief and the continued use for a short time causes a permanent removal of the tumors or the small parasites which cause the intense itching and discomfort of itching piles. Many physicians for a long time silppoS' ed that the remarkable relief afforded by the Pyramid Pile Cure was because it was supposed to contain cocaine, opium or similar drags, but such is not the case. A recent careful analysis of the remedy showed it to be absolutely free from any cocaine, opium, or in fact any poisonous, injurious drugs whatever.

For this reason the Pyramid Pile Cure is probably the only pile cure extensively recommended by physicians, because it is so safe, so prompt in the relief afforded and so far as known the only positive cure for piles except a surgical operation. In one year the Pyramid Pile Cure has become the best known, the safest and the most extensively sold of any pile cure be rore tne puDiic. Nearly all druggists now sell it at 50c and $1 per package. Address the Pyramid Company, Albion, for book on cause and cure of piles and also hundreds of testimonials from all parts of the United States. If suffering from any form of piles ask your druggist for a package of Pyramid Pile Cure and try it to night.

Judge W. W. Chlsolm. John Chlaolm and Cornelia Josephine Chlsolm. Judge Chisolm and his two children were atrociously murdered by an infuriated mob at De Kalb.

Kemner county. Mis sissippi, in 1877. Judge Chisolm, because ne iavored law and order, had been an object of hatrde for ten years, and several attempts had been made on his life by the Ku Klux of Kemper county. The matter coming before the United States Court, the Judge testified against the ruffians. This so enraged them that, they threatened to kill him a soon as a pretext could be found.

At last one of the leaders. John W. Gully, was shot, April 26th. 1877, while riding through the woods on his way home from De Kalb. The bandits at once accused Chisolm and others of having instigated the murder nnd resolved on vengeance.

Chisolm gave himself up and was placed in jail. A mob of thrift hundred assembled clamoring for hia blood. The family of the Judge were with him in the jail, when the mob broke in and commenced firing on them. John, a lad need fourteen, was killed. Cornelia, a beautiful girl of nineteen, was mortally wounded while trying to protect her father.

On removing her to ner home, thirty six bullet holes were counted in her skirts, which were a mass of Her father was wounded in several places. On being je moved to his home he lingered until May 13th, 1877 (two when he died. Cornelia lingered until the 15th, when she passed away. Subsequent developments showed that Gully was shot by a negro whom he had threatened to kill, and that the Judge had nothing to do with the crime. The negro was arrested, convicted and executed.

A place of quiet sepulture was offered the widow for her husband and children in the cemetery at Salon.i, Clinton county. by the proprietor. J. O. Shrmund.

JOHN OF LANCASTER. A BERKS COUNTY BUTLKR.

A Brave Soldier of Seventy Six. William Butler, the tmhieer of this sketch, was bom In Ireland "within two miles of llnhlin as he often exnressed it. in July. 1743. lie was educated in the schools of Dublin.

Near the close of the French nnd In dian War he was pressed into the British xsavy and against his will brought to America. On the landing of the vessel in America he deserted the vessol and escaped Into' the interior of Pennsylvania. The old hero often related the following story of his escape in the hon ing of the writer, thrilling his boyhood hours with the exciting scenes. The vessel on board of which Butler had been brought from his native home anchored somewhere 011 the coast of New Jersey. A squad of marines, one of whom was Mie hero of this story, was sent ashore under tiif; command of a lieutenant to cut and prepare wo td for use on the vessel: cutting the wood they went into a.

farm house to get food and especially cider, for which New Jersey was famous. The marines stacked their guns in the hall of the house and the lieutenant placed his sword 011 the hall tn ble. All went into nn adjoining room to eat their food and drink their hard cider. While the cider drinking was coins on William Butler slipped out of the room, poured eider in the pans of the old flint lock gniin. seized the lieutenant's sword and ran for his life.

His departure was not noticed for a little time, and when they became aware of it the marines rushed for their guns and. the lieutenant for hi a sword, out to UttlapurpoBs.as the guns war sileneed and the sword was gone. In vain they tried to flra their guns. So the swift footed ran and tried to catch their fleeing companion. Seeing them behind him in swift pursuit only lent additional strength to his limbs and courage to his heart.

It was then a race for life or death, for Butler had once before tried to escape by swimming ashore from the anchored vessel. One of bis pursuers got so close to him as to touch Butler's back with the points of his fingers. Feeling this, Butler struck back with his sword and the point of it cut through the cheek of the open mouthed pursuer. This ended the pursuit. The old hero often said he saw the wounded marine on the streets of Philadelphia after the war, but did not make himself known.

Butler made his way to the river Delaware, buried the sword in the sandy beach and waded and swam till he reached the opposite shore. While swimming he felt burdened by the weight of a heavy double eased watch his father had given him on leaving home, and to be relieved he drop Ded it in the river. The writer oft lament ed with boyish grief the loss of that watch. After crossing the river Butler made his way into the interior of Penn sylvania, where other Butlers from Ireland, relatives, had settled, notably the five famous Butler brothers. He seems to have settled in that portion of the State now included in Berks county, for when the Revolution broke out he enlisted for twenty two months in a company re cruited in Berks county by Capt.

Henry Christ, of the Second Pennsylvania Regi ment of Rifles and Musketry. He served his full time in this company, then re enlisted for three years or during the war. For his military services the following ac count is from a document lurnished by the Pension Bureau at Washington. "William Butler, when he applied for 1818, was residing in Craw ford county, ennsyivania. in aiay, ijso, he stated his age as 80 years in July next.

On the capture of Fort Washington and the evacuation of Fort Lee, November 16th and 18th, 1776, the army retreated across JNew Jersey into Pennsylvania. "Gen.

Washington reerossed the Dela ware river in boats, amid the floating ice, facing a driving snow storm, reached Trenton, N. then occupied by the British, surprised them in the early morn of December 26, 1776, captured over 900 Hessians, in all of which Butler partici pated. is regiment was commanded by Col. Samuel Miles. "The said William Butler continued in the United States service until the expiration of the aforesaid twenty two months and re enlisted for three years or during me war in tne same company commanded by Capt.

Marshall (Capt. Christ having resigned) in the Second Pennsylvania Regiment commanded by Col. Walter Stewart (Col. Miles having resigned.) "He was in the battle of Brandywine, September 11, 1777, which was followed by the British occupation of Philadelphia, September 26, 1777. "Butler accompanied the detachment ordered to assist in the defense of the forts at Red Bank and Mud Island, a short distance below Philadelphia, which was besieged in the latter part of October and November, 1777.

The object of the enemy's attack was to open communication with their fleet and transports to receive supplies of provisions and munitions of war, in which they were successful. "He was in the camp of Washington at Valley Forge that terrible winter of 1777 78. "He was at the battle of Monmouth, N. June 28, 1778, with the British army which had evacuated Philadelphia June 18, 1778, to march across New Jersey to reach New York city. The day of the battle was an excessively hot day and General Washington had left the historic camp of Valley Forere.

He was buried in the old grave yard at Harmon sbnrtr. beside his son, James Butler, who died in lS i He had four daughters born to him while living on his farm. llliam Butler, the old hero, was a man of extraordinary strength and cour age, that knew no fear whether he had to fierht with fist or cun. On his removal from Lycoming county he left behind him two grown sons, James and William. These two sons crossed the Alleehenv Mountains, married and settled in Black Lick Valley between Chestnut Ridge and Jjaurel llidge, near Armagh, in Indiana county, Pa.

James Butler was a furnace man. pat tern maker and moulder. He worked in the Old Ross Furnace, the first iron furnace ever bnilt west of the Allegheny Mountains. He married Martha Clarke. daughter of William Clarke, or Esouire.

or "'Squire Clarke." as he was commonly caned. squire Clarke came from the North of Ireland. He was well educated and a man of great wealth in those early days.

William lived on part of his father's tarm ana there his children were born. By his second marriage he had two sons and two daughters. The two sons and one daughter sail survive. After settling in Crawford county, William Butler followed transporting goods by flat boats or barges between Meadville and Pittsburg. These barges were poled up and down French Creek and theAl legheny River.

In 1830 he took a boat load of supplies of various kinds down the Allegheny, Ohio and Mississippi Rivers to New Orleans. While at New Orleans he was murdered, and for some two or three years his family did not know what had become of him. Some three years had passed when his brother James left his family of ten children in Black Lick alley where most of them were cared for by the Clarkes, their mother having died, and proceeded down the river to iNew Orleans. He there learned aJ 1 that is known about hts brother William death and burial After gaining all the information he could he returned to Crawford county, to report to his father and sister in law the sad news. Two days after his return he died suddenly on his father's farm and was buried in the old graveyard at Har monsburg.

It was several years before his family in Black Lick learned of James death. William Butler's two younger children, a son named William David and a daughter, were cared for and brought up by their mother parents, the McAlurtrys. From these two sons, James Butler and William Butler, have descended a numerous posterity. Most of them now living are in Allegheny, Westmoreland, Indiana and Cambria counties. Some are scat tered over the West and some are east of the Allegheny mountains.

The writer of this narrative has during the past two years visited and talked with at least one hundred and fifty descendants of Wil liam Butler, the soldier of the revolution, through his two sons, James and William. James Butler left in Indiana county a family of ten children, six sons and four daughters. Ihey were William, Abner and Solomon (twins), Elisabeth, Caleb, Martha and Ellen (twins), Ruth, Jesse and Washington. William. Caleb, Jesse and Washington are now living.

William has one son and four daughters, all married and with families. Caleb has three sons and two daughters, married and with families. One daughter died leaving two sons and a daughter. Jesse has six sons and one daughter. The daughter and four sons' are married and have families.

One daughter died leaving a son. Wash ingtoii has two sons and four daughters. The mats and one daughter are married and have families. William Bulter has three sons living, Samuel, Joseph and William D. Samuel has a family of five sons and two daughters.

His two daughters and three sons are married and have families. Joseph Butler has two daughters married and with families, and one son unmarried. William D. Butler has three sons and two daughters. One son and one daughter are married and have families.

William Butler, the soldier of the Revolution, has now livings bearing the name Butler, seven grandsons, the oldest 83 and the youngest 07, all men of great physical strength in their younger days. He has twenty one great grandsons, also Butlers, and sons of the fifth genration more than the writer has the names of. In the above numeration the writer has taken no account of the daughters born in the several Butler families, and their equally numer ous posterity. The writer interest has been confined to those bearing the name Butler, the male descendants bearing that name. It will be difficult to find a hardier race of men than the Butlers of this family, or one more numerous.

This Butler family have characteristic traits, which pass down the whole line ot descent. Deter mined will and the courage of their convictions mark them all. A strand of mechanical genius runs through them all. James Butler's sons were all skilled mechanics or machinists. For sixty years the Butlers of Crawford county lost all knowledge of the Butlers in Indiana county, owing to the peculiar death or the two brothers.

OVERHEARD IN THE CARS.

Some women, says the Daily Commercial, have found a fortune in their faces, while others (have found fortune in their figures. But more interesting and profitable than the experiences of these, is that of the Ohio girl who actually found a fortune in her ear. This young lady has been a resident of the Buckeye State for fifteen years. Her present home is in Cincinnati, where she ranks as one of the most successful musicians and voice traincts in the entire West. Her personal attractiveness and unusually vivacious temperament have, combined with her accomplishments, gained for her an enviable social position.

To look at her bright, rosy, girlish face one would suppose that her life had been one of perpetual sunshine, and that she had never known a moment's unhappiness. No one would for an instant surmise that this same girl had for nearly two years been the victim of a tormentor that came near blasting her life and robbing her of her reason. Her life presents one of those cases where present appearances fail to give an insight into past experiences. It was during an entertainment at the College of Music in which she took part, mar ane contracted wnat she then regarded as a slight cold. "I took no notice of at first," said the young lady recently, to a Commercial Reporter, "but in about a week small red spots appeared on my face, and so disfigured me that I lost my pupils, one by one.

Their mothers, fear ing contagion, did not wont them to come in contact with. me. A nervous racking cougn roDDeo me ot sieen and anrjetite. and each of four different physicians who were caiieu in gave a different opinion as to what my trouble was. Eczema, blood poisoning, lung trouble and a complication or disorders were among the results of their diagnoses.

My buffering was intense and I began wasting away to a mere shadow. Dreading the solicitude and sympathy which I could plainly read on the faces of my friends. I secretly chanc ed my boarding place. When they found my new address I decided, by the advice of two physicians, to go to a private 1 oauimiiuui umiuiKi. juy journey in the cars," continued the young lady, "was a terrible ordeal, for, aside from my physical suffering, I saw that, although I wore a veil, the passengers avoided the seats near me, and between my coughing spells could not nut nearthat tney talked about my hopeless condition and disfigured face.

"Besides the horrible skin disease, she's got consumption, nnd it's eoincr to kill her, poor thing. It almost killed my sister," remarked a lady, in an audible whis per, to her companion ncross the aisle. 1 shuddered as 1 thus heard ray doom pronounced by careless lips, and didn't have enough hone left to nav more than passing notice to the name of the discovery which the lady said had saved her sister's life. I had met with so many disappointments that I almost courted death, and it was a relief to get with in the sheltering wall of the Sanitarium, and hear the encouraging words of the proprietor and his attendants. "But all my hope vanished when, after eight weeks' treatment.

I was naked for the addresses of my relatives and friends. I knew then that these doctors also consid ered my case hopeless. The mental agony j. enourea brought my journey on the cars back to me with vivid distinctness, and suddenly tho name of the 'Discovery' which the talkative passenger mentioned as havintr saved her sister's life, hecran ringing in my ears. Somehow I could not drive it from my mind, rnd my an almost superhuman impulse I was impelled to secretly send a note for a bottle of it, which I took according to directions.

The first few days it ihnd no apparent effect on my case, except it relieved my cough somewhat and the soreness on my luinrs. The second bottle gave me more strength, and tne eruption on my skin began to disappear. I sent out for three more bottles. and by the time I had taken them I felt almost well. 1 knew it was against the rules of the Institution for patienta to take anv medicines exeent those nreserih ed there, and I called the chief physician to my room, snowed him that I had left his own medicine untouched for weeks.

and told him that I had broken the rules nnd taken Dr. Pierce Golden Medical Discovery which saved my life after five different doctors had failed. Mr cure i a matter of record, and I cheerfully consent to its publication as a token of gratitude to Dr. Pierce and his wonderful 'Discovery, nnd in order that other women may be rescued from ngonizing suffering and untimely death. I hnve resumed giving music lessons, and as you can sec with your own eyes," added the young lady to the reporter, "my skin is smooth and clear, nnd my health is nerfect.

If I had not heard those two young women dis cussing my case in the cars, I would not be here to day, telling jou my wonderful recovery. My hearing that conversation proved a fortune to me." the haw of Nature is. Dr. Pierce believes, for ieorIe to be hen 1th v. When they are sick, Nature helps to cure them.

Nature's law is guide for urimr sick people. hat the doctors call many different diseases Nature cures in one wav; by nourishing the whole body with good, pure, rich, red blood. That is Nature's way of curing scrofula, erysipelas, kidney and "liver coniDlaiut." consumntion and every form of eruptive and wasting disease. When you want to help Nature with medicine tho medicine must work the same way as Nature works, then it has the laws ot JNature on its side to make it powerful. That is the secret of the wonderful cures of Dr.

Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It assists Nature ac cording to her own laws; it is on Nature's Aide and iNature helrw it; it imparts new power to the nutritive and blood mnkini; organs to create a large quantity of fresh. red, neallhy blood which drives every germ of disease out of the system and builds up strong healthy tissues nnd solid flesh. The "Discovery" completely clears a way every lorm ot blood diseases from the system; it even cures consumption. It is the only true radical cure for tlint dis ease; fucts and testimony to prove it.

Mrs. James Garfield, of (7 Mnry street, Hamilton, writes: "I would like to tell the whole world whnt vonr 'Golden Medical Discovery has done for me. 1 he doctor, who is considered an expert on lung troubles, told me I had consumption. lie said both, my lungs were diseased and I could not live long. I felt down hearted for 1 hnve dear little children to live for.

I just went to him to get his opinion. I nm glad I did for now I know what your medicine will do. When I started on the second bottle I was hotter in every way and was able to take a walk on every tine day. I enjoyed my ieep, my appetite was good, and by the time I had finished the seeotwl bnttlo I began to feel lik a new wmnnn. utili had a cough, so I got a third bottle and by the time it was half gone I was completely I The experience of George W.

Ilulsign, a railroad conductor, of Milton, is only one instance among thousands of similinr cases. He writes: "I bad my third doctor, and he doctored at me for some time, and finally said: 'There is no use runuig up a I asked him whnt ailed tne. He said: 'Why, it is coil This gave me great alarm, and I was about to give up iu despuir; but, thanks to kind Providence, my little boy came in one day from the front yard with one of Dr. Pierce's Memorandum and Account Books. I rend the pages, and then told my wife that I believed that if we could gut that 'Golden Medical Discovery it would help me.

My wife called at the uru iur 111 a lew m.ijs, buu kui eis botttes for 9S.OO. Tho first few doses I took I cot alarmed, top I felt a numb fel ing. but kept on taking the medicine as di rected.

During 1887, 1888, 1889, I was nnder the doctors care all the time and got worse, and my husband spent a good deal of money to no good, and people thought I was going to die. The last time my husband changed doctors he brought two, and when they examined me he asked them what they thought of my case. They said they could not cure me, but they could patch me up until falL I received one of your pamphlets, wrote to you and gave you my symptoms.

WHY ATTEMPT TO CURE catarrh by the use of so called blood remedies? That catarrh is not caused by blood troubles is self evident when you reflect that attacks are always due to sudden climatic changes or exposure, nnd occur most frequently during the winter and spring, though the blood is as pure then as in summer or fall.

32. "This Jesus hath God risen up, whereof we are all witnesses." The man who had with oaths and corses so cowardly denied Him is the one who Is chosen by the Spirit to be His month piece to this multitude. Being filled with the Spirit takes away all thought of self and all fear of man. He first quotes from Joel ii. 28 32.

and says here is a fulfillment, of the words of tbat prophet. He then speaks of Jesus of Nazareth and the wonders wrought by God through Him, and openly charges them with His death. He then quotes from the words of David in Ps. Xxl, concerning His resurrection and continues in the words of this first verse of our lesson. 33.

Before He died He said tbat He was going back to the Father who had sent Him and that He would send down from heaven the Holy Spirit, whom they now saw and heard In these disciples (John xvi, 5 8). Here, then, was the evidence that Jesus of Nazareth was really the one He professed to be, and tbat he was not an Imposter or blasphemer. Here was the evidence that He whom they crucified was now alive from the dead and actually in heaven. 34. 35.

David did not rise from the dead. He did not speak of his own resurrection in Ps. xvi. but of Him of whom he said in Ps. ir, 1, "The Lord saith unto my Lord, Sit thou on My right hand until I make thy foes thy footstool." David, as to his spirit, is certainly in glory, but his body still sleeps in the dust of the earth.

3G. Peter, therefore, by the Spirit, Insists that the very same Jesus whom they crucified God has raised from the dead and taken to His own right hand, thus making Him Lord and Christ and declaring Him to be the long promised Son of David to sit on David's throne, and the Son of Abraham in whom all the promises to the fathers are to be fulfilled. 37, The Spirit, by His words through Peter, took hold of their hearts, convinced them of then sin and led them to cry out, "Alen and brethren, what shall we do?" Ther was no urging on the part of Peter that they should come forward to tho penitent bench, or raise their hands for prayer, or sign a card declaring their intention to lead a new life, however helpful these methods may sometimes be. 38. hen Jesus was on one occasion asked, "What shall we dor His answer was, "Believe on Him whom God hath sent" (John vi, 28, 29).

Peter says by the same Spirit, "Repent and baptized," which Is another way of saying, "Believe." To believe that Jesus was their Messiah would be a complete change of mind or repentance on their part, and to be baptized In His name would be outward confession that thev had received Trim re ceive Him would secure the forgive ness oi au tneir sins (John 12; I John li. 12.) 89.

The God who sought out and restored Adam and Eve. who sent ancels to rescue Tt and his family, who pleaded so earnestly with backsliding Israel (Jer. ill, 13, 14), Is our God and the same unchangeable Jehovah.

40. Perhaps some of the "many Other words" He nswl mlfrbt lm fnn.i In Isa. 1, 18; xliii, 25; lv, 3, Ezelc. X.XXV1, zo, ior tnose are the Spirit's own words to sinners. Peter did not think to save the generation or race of Jews, but He did expect, like Paul, to save some of them (I Cor.

Would not some evangelists be tempted to make a demonstration over that? Whoever heard of such a result from one sermon? This was the Lord's doing and must hnve been mar velous in their eyes. 42.

The wonders nml cltrna by the apostles would doubtless be on the line of Mark xvi, 17 20, and being such as He Himself wrought when He was on earth would add to their testimony that He was still alive, though Invisible, and had all power In heaven and on earth.
