At a laymen’s meeting of Southern Baptists held in Richmond,
Mr. R. E. Breit, president of a Texas oil company, was called
upon for an address. He said, “Brethren, I never made a speech
in my life and I can’t make one now; but if Brother Willingham
(secretary of the missionary society) will send ten men to
China, he can send the bill to me.” (Text.)
