Balaam’s flawed will clashes with God’s will and downfall
The sermon recounts Balaam the diviner enticed by Balak’s rewards, pursuing his own lusts against Jehovah’s direct and permissive will. An angel halts him, yet he proffers only partial obedience, ends by blessing Israel, is slain, and becomes a cautionary figure for covetousness and compromised duty.

Clerical Expedient in a Foglish Sermon
The Boston Transcript recounts preacher Stephen Jenkins reading a Scripture lesson in a rough Foglish style. He misreads the third chapter of First Peter, stumbles repeatedly, and finally escapes by resuming the prior cadence with grave humor.
