Appleton Chapel.

Rev. Brooke Herford preached in Appleton Chapel last evening, taking as a text Paul's words, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthened me." Paul does not seem to imply that he is miraculously gifted with strength of mind and purpose but simply that an entire dependence on Christ is strength of itself although separate from any tangible manifestation of assistance. Paul saw Christ in his dreams and the vision always helped him, but even these appearances probably came to him because he thought of his divine leader so often, and always as a leader who was anxious to aid and comfort.

In the shipwreck Paul, though a prisoner, gave his orders about the management of the vessel and was implicitly obeyed. The men seemed to be aware that it was not the mere prisoner who was commanding them, but the influence of the divine leader working through him.

The choir sand the following anthems: Blessed is He-Tours; It is of the Lord's Mercies-Thorne; For His Wrath Endures but for a Moment-Smart.
