" I said I had only known him about a year. "If you had, " he said, "you would have known the wickedest man in 114 REMINISCENCES Washington. I was an awful swearer. If my work went well, I swore ; if it went wrong I swore worse. When I went home and be- gan to talk to my wife or children, I was swearing all the time. One evening, in a speech you made at the Mission, you said something about swearing. I thought you meant me, and I began to get angry. But you stopped just in time. It made me thin...k. I was ashamed to go to you, so I went to Mr. M. (the assistant minister), and asked him if a man who had been for many years an awful swearer, could be cured of it. And he said he could, by the help of God's grace. And when I asked how I could get that help, he wrote on a paper a little prayer in two or three lines, told me to learn it, to say it every morning and night, and every time I caught myself swearing. I began, but it was an awful fight. Yet do you know, until to- night, I have not sworn an oath for four months; but to-night (it was winter, and the six stone steps at the front door were very icy), when I came in, my foot slipped at the top step, and I swore all the way to the bottom.
