Providence and a Mission Box Mystery of Harold Breyfogle
A long and curious tale recounts Harold Breyfogle and friends who drink and gamble at home while a missionary box sits nearby. After a camp meeting they drain the Breyfogle ice chest and later the box funds are opened to reveal nearly 900 in gold, prompting belief that Providence guided the windfall. Harold, present at services, hides his dawning realization as the church celebrates the unexpected bounty.
