Religious Revival in the Infernal Regions
A Richmond Methodist revival ends with mock class meeting in Webber's Saloon as devils and believers clash. Six brothers teeter on leaving worldly life, but a sudden divine presence transforms them and the church welcomes them back, while a moral reflection on faith and fear follows. Also notes the annual coffee value at 16,000,000.
