LADY HUNTINGDON AND HER GARDENER.—Lady Huntingdon, having employed a man to work in her garden, took an opportunity to urge him to take some serious thoughts about his soul. Some years afterward she employed another man for the same purpose, and began to talk to him in the same way, expressing her fears that he never prayed nor looked to Christ for pardon. “Your ladyship is mistaken,” said he. “I heard what passed between you and James, at such a time, and the words designed for him took effect on me.” “How did you hear it?” she inquired. “I heard it,” he replied, “on the other side of the garden, through a hole in the wall, and shall never forget the impression I received.”
