Y.) an assemblage of farmers in open field expressed in his presence utter hope lessness with regard to rain, saying that a single day more would ruin every crop. If you would pray for rain with Faith it would come, he said. But we have no faith! Will not you exercise it for us P Whereupon he knelt down upon a stump and prayed mightily for three hours, while (it was related) copious showers fell from the eyes of his hearers.
