A'worthy old Quaker, iv hi l:ved !n a country town in England was rich and benevolent, and his means were put in frequent requisition for pur pose of local' charity or usefulness. The townspeople wanted . to rebuild their parish church, . and a committee was appointed to raise funds, . It was agreed that tbe Quaker could not be asked to subscribe toward an object bo contrary to his principles; but then, on the other hand, so true a friend to the town might take" It amiss if be was not at least consulted on a mat ter of such general interest So one of their number went and explained to blm their project; the old church was to be removed and such and such steps taken toward tbe construction of a new one. "Thee wast right," the Quaker Bald. "In , supposing that my ; principles would not allow me to assist in build ing a church. But didst tbee not say something about polling , down a church T Thee may'st put ray name down for a hundred pounds." Meri vale'e "Historical Studies. A Gentle Remlnd.r. , .'
