Hew Mr. Leavltt had the written manu
script of the sermon which his father
preached and he read It to his congre

Christian forbearance sought almost to
find voice, while the human mind dwelt
on the deed which nil been done at
Washington.
Abraham Lincoln's place In the hearts
of the people of the north was very large
at that time even and many believed In
the heat and passion of the moment that
.the assassination had been ordered by
(the leaders of tho Confederacy.
The congregation Sunday, viewing the
act from a distance of fifty years and In
the light of the socbtl and commercial
bonds which now unite north and south,
cculd see that the act, foul llvxigh It
was, perhaps was for the best, as seem
ing calamities always arc, sutd the pastor,
to those who love Uod.
