Lorenzo Dow Raises the Devil in a Haunted Barn Tale
Lorenzo Dow, famed Methodist revivalist, visits a household where a father opposes his daughter’s marriage. Dow warns of a fiery manifestation, uses a spark from tow, and aids the couple’s escape. The father, frightened, consents after Dow stays several days and inquires about the suitor, leading to a quiet wedding predeparture. The tale concludes with a comic remark about the Irish.
