A visitor recounts a Washington tale about a future Supreme Court justice who as a boy preached during Campbellite activity. He claimed the Red Sea froze and the Israelites crossed easily while Pharaoh’s Egyptians sank in the ice, prompting a skeptical parishioner’s equator question. The judge quips that there was no equator then, ending the exchange with a light moral.
