Sir,
There are many people sceptical of God, who foolishly think that the Lord’s Day, or Sunday, is not really a very important day and can do with it, and every other day, just as they like.
The story is told of a farmer, a proud atheist, who once wrote to the editor of a newspaper: ‘Sir, I have been trying an experiment. I have a field of corn which I ploughed on Sunday, I planted it on Sunday, I did the cultivating on Sunday, I gathered the crop on Sunday, and on Sunday I hauled it into my barn. And I find that I have more corn per acre than has been gathered by any of my neighbours during this October.’
