"Well, my son, where are you from?" said the pastor.
"From Charleston, sir."
"Was you a member of the church there, my son?"
"Yes, sir, I was a member of the church."
"Does any one here know anything about Jonas?"
A half-dozen responded "Yes," all agreeing that his deportment was correct.
"Did you bring your 'stificate with you?"
"No, sir; I came away in a hurry, and hadn't any time to get one."
"Yes, my son; we understand that you were obliged to leave in a hurry or not at all. But what made you become a Christian?"
"Because I felt I was a sinner."
