Seeing me draw together great crowds of men each Sabbath, they thought it would be a fine thing for them to patronize street preaching; and while I was administering to my audience "the bread of life," they would improve the repast by adding a little good fruit. So one bright Sunday morning in November,- 1851, when I went to my appointment on Pacific Wharf, there they were, in front of my " barrel pulpit," the two stands side by side, with their fruit arranged in the most inviting style. I moun...ted the "barrel" without appearing to notice them, and sung up a congregation. Wbile I was singing the first verse of " The Old Fanjily Bible," a man cried 'out, " "Where did you get your Bible ?" Just at that moment I was ready to commence the second verse, and sung to him, '"The Bible, the volume of OoWs inspiration.' " That's where I got it, sir ; by the inspiration of God," and then sung on. '"At morning and evening could yield us delight, And the prayer of our sire was a sweet invocation, For mercy by day, and for safety through night.
