Episcipalian Daughter Encounters Revivalist at NY Hearing
An Episcopalian bishop's daughter, raised strictly and never to revival meetings, attends Tom Harrison's sermon in New York. She fears speaking to him yet he asks if she is Christian, she replies she is Episcopalian. The evangelist moves on with a soft rebuke and no further remarks. The piece also promotes Dr King’s New Life Pills and lists local circuit appointments and a garden advertisement.
