The hand of the clock fastened up on the white wall of the conference room, just over the framed card bearing the words 'Stand up for Jesus,' and between two other similar cards, respectively bearing the sentences 'Come unto Me,' and 'The Wonderful, the Counsellor,' pointed to ten minutes of nine. As was usual at this period of Newville prayer-meetings, a prolonged pause had supervened. The regular standbyes had all taken their usual part, and for any one to speak or pray would have been about as irregular as for one of the regulars to fail in doing so. For the attendants at Newville prayer-meetings were strictly divided into the two classes of speakers and listeners, and, except during revivals or times of special interest, the distinction was scrupulously observed.
