So it was necessary to consult her about everything simply beâ€" cause we needed the dollar she otherwise gave at each service. The following Sunday evening Mr. Briggs appeared, a handsome chap, with good manners. He was willing to sing and suggested, it being a church concert, that he sing "The Palms." Marge was to play the organ. After a couple of rehearsals we were ready for the eventful evening. Being chairman of the program committee, I asked a group of the soldiers if any of them would sing for us. The answer came in a chorus, "Ask Briggs; he‘ll sing anywhere."

There were four little girls with lit candles. Each said her two lines, blew out her candle and the program was ended. By the time I could get out from behind that curtain, most of the audience was out of the church. Even Mr. Briggs and Marge were gone. I was left to lock the door, and it was understood I would get the key to the old maid the next morning as she was in charge of the cleaning up.

I couldn‘t leave them, for they had their candles lit and were dressed in their nighties, with their hair all loose. around their heads. So I wasn‘t consulted. After the fine rendition of the first song, I expected something like "Holy Night" or "Blest be the tie that binds."
