Had No Suitable Prayer On Hand

Warren Review: A good story is being told on A 1 Peacock, postmaster at Attica, to the effeot that he with several other gentlemen, went to church a few weeks ago to hear the new M. E. preacher. They sat well up in front and Rev. Biggs was so impressed with Al’s sanctimonious demeanor that he asked him to lead in prayer. Now as many of Mr. Peacock’s friends know, he seldom prays except for a government appointment, so he had to be exoused.
