Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Dr. Heidenhoffs Process Deacon Tuttle had spoken and prayed, Deacon Miller had prayed and spoken, Brother Hunt had amplified a point in last Sunday´s sermon, Brother Taylor had called attention to a recent sudden death in the village as a warning to sinners, and Sister Morris had prayed twice, the second time, it must be admitted, with a certain perceptible petulance of tone, as if willing to have it understood that she was doing more than ought to be expected of her. But while it was extremely improbable that any others of the twenty or thirty persons assembled would feel called on to break the silence, though it stretched to the crack of doom, yet, on the other hand, to close the meeting before the mill bell had struck nine, would have been regarded as a dangerous innovation. Accordingly it only remained to wait in decorous silence during the remaining ten minutes. The clock ticked on with that judicial intonation characteristic of time-pieces that measure sacred time and wasted opportunities. At intervals the pastor, with an innocent affectation of having just observed the silence, would remark: "There is yet opportunity... Time is passing, brethren... Any brother or sister... We shall be glad to hear from any one." Farmer Bragg, tired with his day´s hoeing, snored quietly in the corner of a seat. Mrs. Parker dropped a hymn-book.
