Remembering the debt the man owed him, the tradesman interjected, “ And, Lord, give him debt-paying faith!” The Rev. Edgar Ball, of Mansfield, who told this story, added: “ Long-standing credit is fraud. My money is not all right if it is in an other man’s pocket when it ought to be in mine!’’— The Christian Herald (London).
