Last Sunday they say he preached on the iron that floated . If he 'd confine himself to the Bible and leave sensational subjects alone it would be better for him and his poor congregation , and so I told Mrs. John Callman to her face . I should think she would have had enough of his sex by this time . She married John Callman against her father 's will , and he had delirious trembles for years . That 's the men for you . '' `` They 're not all like that , Aunt Philippa , '' I protested . `` Most of 'em are . See that house over there ? Mrs. Jane Harrison lives there . Her husband took tantrums every few days or so and would n't get out of bed . She had to do all the barn work till he 'd got over his spell . That 's men for you . When he died , people writ her letters of condolence but I just sot down and writ her one of congratulation . There 's the Presbyterian manse in the hollow . Mr. Bentwell 's our minister . He 's a good man and he 'd be a rather nice one if he did n't think it was his duty to be a little miserable all the time . He wo n't let his wife wear a fashionable hat , and his daughter ca n't fix her hair the way she wants to . Even being a minister ca n't prevent a man from being a crank . Here 's Ebenezer Milgrave coming . You take a good look at him .
He used to be insane XXXXX years .
