In the Norwalk Methodist Episcopal
Church last evening there was an and-
‘ fence' which filled the main body of
t s church to listen- to a. sermon by
augelist Henderson, assisted bl’
coder-son, who is a most impres-
spol soloist. After a soul
led by a large chorus choir the
was preached from the text

which made a deep impression on the
congregation The preacher showed
t, ‘ every man served some master,
that master was either self or
In
at n We belonged to God, yet We were
not his servants until we surrendered
to Jesus. The result of. this surren-
der was service to our fellow men;
the richest man in the community was
the man who most largely enriched
others: the church existed not to
3 amuse men but to serve them. This
is made evident by thought on what
Christ would now do in Norwalk
should he appear again in the flesh.
‘9 would do that in essence which
t one are endeavoring to do who have
surrendered all to him. After the ser-
mun Mr. Henderson appealed to the
people to surrender all to Jesus Christ,
and asked all who would do so to
meet him at the, altar while the choir
and; "‘ Surrender All." There was
a very general response and a large
number came forward. A deep im-
provision was made by the singing of

opif‘TOdhy if Ye Will Hear His Voice"
and "Shall I be 8 red Tonight " Mr.
Henderson stated“ at the outlook was

was from the words What In that to
thee? Follow thou Me." The ser
mon was a consideration of the words
"Thee" and "Me" and the question and
the command of the text. in open-
ing the preacher directed the thought
to the loneliness of the htunau spirit
since each man stood alone before
God, personally responsible to Him for
.his own life. None could share this
responsibility; none evade the sancti-
ty of that lnncr‘chamber of the soul
where we did business with God. Next
the thought was directed to the divine

The Eliza Vetromile was bound from

crew the bark was carried on the point
and became a total wreck. The crew
reached shore in safety. and were for-

his companions were in terrible con-
dition when they were taken from

isi. of this city. whose name has been
connected with the alleged attomptfof
the "Black Hand” to extort money from
R. Flu-rare. a fruit dealer of Westport.
has received the following letter from,
Mr. iv‘errnra. which completely exoner-
ates him from all connection with the. ~ ~‘
matter. The letter “as sent to 15in ‘
Purl. .i by Mr Ferraro on the advicd of
his attorney. John J Cnnoo of South
Noiwalk. and is as follows: , ‘.
Wostpmi Conn, Pub. 13 1505
Dr. iioigi l‘nisl Mmiiitln Conn
Dt'iil‘ Doctor: 1 exceedingly regret
to blur your name being connected
with the lllaok Hand case, as pubs
iisllnai in the various newspapers on ._ ;
iln- :3llltl'. I think it my duty to state \
than illi' only «ounce-tion you have ‘
tlir- information I imported to you of, '3
tho receiving of tin~ letters purport»
ing to come from the Black Hand
demanding Slot). "You strongly a'd- ‘
vised me to have absolutely nothing
to do with the tlinrk Hand and to
cuttroly ignore the. letters. 'l‘h‘iitia “
the only connection you have had
with thr- swcailoii lilark liumi case._
and anything that has been published ‘
lo the contrary is absolutely false.
This is the first time I have made a
statement concerning this affair to
anyone. and I earnestly hope this will 3
bring this matter of connecting you
with the Black Hand case to an end.
i desire to have you understand that
you are to continue as our family
physician. Yours very sincerely.
(Signed) It. FERRARA.
It has been lcarncd that Ferraro
never sent $400 to the Black Band by
Dr. I’ariei or anyone else. The story,
it is said, got but because Ferrara’s
daughter, who,was hysterical, being
frightened bythaalicgcd Black Hand
letters, was told by her father, who-3 '
desired to quiet her nervous fears,
would "settle the,
matter, and it would be all rig
it is understhbd that the da lighter

information to a reporter .
