On one memorable Sunday Captain Shadrach attended church.

It was the first time in a good many years and whether the congregation or Zoeth or the Captain himself was the more astonished at the latter's being there is a question.

Mary-'Gusta was not greatly astonished.

It was the result of careful planning on her part, planning which had as its object the relieving of Mr.Hamilton's mind.

Zoeth never missed a Sunday service or a Friday night prayer meeting.
