An Adventist minister, who sometimes preached in Chellaston, came to hold such service as he thought suitable over the grave, and Alec Trenholme was one of the very few who stood, hat in hand, to see the simple rite. They were not in the old graveyard by the river, but in a new cemetery that had been opened on a slope above the village.
On Saturdays I felt it might be a Jew or a Seventh-Day Adventist, but then it did not work on other days either, so I thought it must be I. W. W., "I Won't Work" as they are called in Australia.
The Adventist must have thought that the Savior of mankind was traveling in mighty queer company, or that he had taken the other fellow along as a frightful example.
She could hitch up a team and drive it like a man. There was only one drawback to Ada. On Saturday when we were busiest she went home and to church; and on Sunday she hung out the washing. Ada was a loyal Adventist. Settlers meeting on the trail hailed one another with "Hello! Where you from? I'm from Illinois" or Virginia or Iowa. "You breakin'?" They had no time for backgrounds.
What she saw was the side of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church a plain clapboard wall of a sour liver color; the ash-pile back of the church; an unpainted stable; and an alley in which a Ford delivery-wagon had been stranded.

'Then you must be an Adventist, you have so much sympathy. 'I shouldn't like to have the world come to an end next year, because there are so many interesting problems, and I want to see how they will be worked out. 'How can you want to put it off' and there was for the first time a little note of fanaticism in her voice 'when there is so much poverty and hard work?

And finds sights of faults with things wherever she is, sights of it. Trueman wuz Josiah's cousin, on his own side, and I always made a practice of usin' her quite well. She used to live neighbor to me before I wuz married, and she come and stayed nine weeks. She is a tall spindlin' woman, a Second Adventist by perswasion, and weighs about ninety-nine pounds.
