In speaking of this custom a clergyman says: "When Christianity was first promul- gated, all preaching was done extem- poraneously. Such a thing as prepar- ing a sermon was unknown.

This practice is still continued in the Roman Catholic church of the present Cay, and I think that a very limited number of the priests ever write a ser- mon. Not all ministers, however, ad- here to this rule by any means.
