THOUSANDS VIEWED THE RE The Funeral Services, Held at Centennia tored for Twelve Years, and Which Most Beautiful and Impressive that ha City Since the Funeral of Bishop Grant No death in Kansas City that has occurred in recent years has occasioned such genuine and deep-seated sorrow and regret as the death of Rev Richard Davis the dignified and scholarly pastor of the Centenniel Methodist Episcopal Church who passed Rev. Richard Davis. D. D. away at the family residence, 1518 Michigan Avenue, at 1:20 o'clock Saturday afternoon, January 10. Trained nurses were constantly at his bedside, and everything that a loving ard devoted wife who had marched by his side for more than forty-two years could do as well as the assistance of a host of loyal members and friends was in vain; and with a smile upon his face, conscious of the end and in the full triumph of the faith of that God whom he served so acceptably for nearly fifty years, he went sweeping, gloriously into the land of cternal rest Rev. Richard Davis was born in Howard County, Missouri, in 1852 and at the time of his death was sixty-eight years of age. He was married to Miss Nellie Diggs also of Howard County, February 22, 1877, 43 years ago; no children blessed this union, but an adopted son whom they loved dearly passed away about eight years ago. The year following his marriage Reverend Davis entered the itinerant ministry and his first charge was Warrenton, Mo., and during these forty-two years he has served acceptably at Sturgeon, Montgomery, North Fayette, Glasgow, Mexico, and Sedalia, where during his pastorate he attended and graduated from George R. Smith College after which he served six years as superintendent of the Sedalia district; coming from there to Centeniel Church where he was serving his twelfth year at the time of his death. Under his pastorate, Centeniel has developed into one of the largest congregation in Kansas City as well as the leading church of his connection in the West. Centeniel was formed by a consolidation of Burns Chapel and Asbury Chapel nearly twenty years ago. At that time Rev. James M. Harris was pastor of Centeniel but the consolidation was performed under the pastorate of the Rev J. Will Jackson. now pastor at Marshall, Mo. When Reverend Davis took charge, there was a debt of $6,000.00 upon the church and when he and Brother Pryor, one of the trustees went down to see the man who held the mortgage upon the church and offered him four hundred dollars as a partial payment on their long over-due obligations, he refused to accept it and curtly informed them that he must have five hundred dollars by the next day or he would proceed to foreclose at once as he was "tired of fooling with them."

One of the most prominent physician line G Dr. W. H. Madison has clearly d and upright dealing with his fellowman golden prize. Dr. W. H. Madison has clearly demonstrated by energy, pluck, ability and upright dealing with his fellowmen the possibility of rising to honor's golden prize. Dr. W. H. Madison, physician and surgeon was born in Abbington, Va. of excellent parents. His early life was spent among pleasant surroundings and he received his primary education at the public schools of that city. While quite young, he entered college where he was prominent for his splendid scholarship and original ideas and graduated with the degree of M. D. in 1915. He is a man of excellent character, enjoys a striking appearance, a magnetic personality and a brilliant and versatile mind. Availing himself of the unrivalled opportunities afforded by the hospital, he rapidly acquired both the theoretical and practical knowledge, so that when he stepped into the world, he possessed a preparation seldom equalled by the young practitioner. He is located in Marshall, Saline Co. State of Missouri, where he enjoys a large and lucrative practice from black and white and is recognized as its leading physician. His sympathetic nature makes him an ideal man for the sick room. His success with all kinds of operations in this county and surrounding counties has commanded for him the respect and confidence of the best people of both races. One of the greatest needs of the Colored people of this Commun- ity is a well regulated hospital when trained nurses can handle and care for the sick under skilled physicians. This young man is prominently connected with many of the business ventures and is ranked as a broad minded solid public spirited citizen—a grand object lesson for what he best and most progressive in the community. Hence we see our hot pit rapidly on the way. He has collected a large library of profuse sional and literary works and has never ceased to be a hard student. Besides this work, Dr. Madison has taken a great interest in the Churches and Secret Societies. He is a member of the North street M. E. Church, holding the office of bot Stewart and Trustee and has an active part in the Centenary Movement. As a Mason, K. of P. and U. B. I he has gained a reputation filling some of the most important offices in each. As a business man, he rank foremost of the race. He has invested his earnings judiciously so that today he has a competency seldom attained by a man of his years. He owns a beautiful home located on the corner of Ellsworth and Marion street, a large Buick-Six Coup and other valuable property of Salin County. --- --- left crest-fallen and downhearted and Brother Pryor said to the pastor, "I don't know what we'll do as I haven't another dollar and I have no idea where we can get the hundred." Then Reverend Davis in his quiet unassuming way said, "Brother Pryor, I have a hundred dollars that my wife and I have saved which I will let you have with the understanding that we'll work as hard as we can to save our church," and he immediately drew his hundred and went back to the mortgage holder who was not inclined to talk further with them until Brother Davis laid the money on the table and said: "Here is your five hundred dollars," the man took it and said to Brother Pryor, "You've got a real man as pastor here now," and then said: "You'll have to bring me $300.00 more in six weeks or I'll foreclose." It is needless to say that Doctor Davis raised the $300.00 in less time than that allotted him; then immediately put on a rally for a thousand dollars which netted over $1,100.00 and kept this strenuous financial effort up until Centenniel had the glorious privilege in 1916 of seeing their mortgage burned. Centenniel has grown under Reverend Pryor's splendid pastorate from less than three hundred to fourteen hundred active members and the following well known people constitute the present official boards: TRUSTEES J. Crawford, Brit Laskin, C. Hickman, L. Tolson, Benjamin Cave, T. T. Payne, L. Miller, William Phillips, and Dr. Hedgeneth. STEWARDS W. M. Lewis W. O. Fisher, L. W. Fitzpatrick, S. S. Hodges, G. T.

Reverend Davis was the organizer of Old Folks' Day in this city and last Christmas he raised a fund of $33.00 to be used in assisting old people irrespective of denomination in this city. He is also an ex-president of the Ministerial Alliance comprising six denominational bodies of which the Rev. O. A. Johnson is the present presiding officer. His last desire expressed to his faithful companion was to see a great revival in Centenniel and to perfect plans for an enlarged church building but this was not to be and like a conquering he went marching home last Saturday morning to join the redeemed host who have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the lamb. Reverend Davis leaves two sisters: Mrs. Anna Shelly of Moberly, Mo.; Mrs. Agnes Seay of Des Moines, Ia.; a number of neices and nephews and a dear devoted wife who has journeyed with him for more than 42 years and who is loved and respected by all who know her; and to her in this hour of sorrow the Sun and its staff extend their deepest sympathy. The funeral was held last Thursday at 1:00 o'clock in the church he loved so well under the auspices of the Ministerial Union and the K. of P., which furnished an escort of honor under Colonel L. A. Knox, while the funeral arrangements were in the hands of Adkins Bros. Undertakers, who have won a high place in the hearts of the people of Kansas City by their attentiveness. (Continued on Page 8.)

PROMINENT WOMAN PASSES AWAY IN SPRINGFIELD MO. The entire community was shocked with grief and sadness over the sudden death of Mrs. Lucy Williams, who was stricken Friday afternoon January 2, with apoplexy and died that evening about 6:30 p. m. The loss to this community in her untimely death will be very keenly felt as she was active and foremost in every movement for the advancement and upbuilding of humanity. She was an active member of the Ladies' Literary and Musical Club, a faithful worker in the W. C. T. U. a charter member of the Women's Community Service Club, Court of Calanthe, and one of the most enthusiastic supporters and devout and beloved members of the Washington Avenue Baptist Church in which she has labored faithfully for the brief time allotted her. No member of the Church has been more faithful in its service, more willing to respond to its every call than has Sister Williams. The funeral was held last Wednesday afternoon; the sermon was eloquently preached by Rev. J. S. Dorssey, assisted by Rev. W. L. Petty who conducted the services. Rev W. H. Young, under whose ministry she served so unfalteringly, came from Topeka, Kansas, to assist in conducting the funeral. He spoke in fitting manner of her services during his pastorate. She was indeed loved by all who knew her; flowers were profuse and beautiful which evidenced the high esteem in which she was held. She leaves to mourn her loss a husband, two brothers, five sons, one daughter and a host of friends. Those who came to pay their last respects to Sister Williams were members of both races and from all walks of life. COMMUNITY SERVICE.

True salamanders live best in the furnace of persecution so that heavy afflictions are the best benefactors to heavenly affections. Where afflictions hang heaviest corruptions hang loosest; and grace that s essential shines forth. Do you wish to live without a trial? Then you wish to die but half a man. Without trials you cannot guess your own strength. No one learns to swim on a chair. You must go into the deep water and buffet the surges. A certain amount of oppositio n is a great help to any undertaking. Through opposition christianity rose to great heights. Kites rise against the wind not with the wind. Through persecution nations rise to eminence and power. Through this channel the Negro race is coming, down the aisle of time I see on the banks of great deliverance a robe and a crown with America in all her glory that waiting throne.

Wilson The blessings of life do notalways come to us because of our many virtues, neither come the trials because of our many bad deeds. But they come as so many mountain streams rushing into some great or small body of water and though it carries many foreign substances that disturb the body of water into which it goes, yet it strengthens that body to such an extent that it overflows its banks. The same is true of the stars, that shine brightest in the darkest night. Young trees root the faster for shaking, vines for bleeding and gold looks brighter for scouring. Such is the condition of men; they are the most triumphant when most tempted as their conflicts, so their conquests, as PRICE, 5c. HON. G. M. WHITE CARD OF THANKS Sur Foreign Correspondents Pace Two.

By Rev, J. W. Clay, Pastor of King Solomon Baptist Chureh, K. C. K. “And the devil that deceived them Was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and false Prophet are, and they shall be tor mented day and night for ever and ever. (Rev. 20:10.) The devil, Satan, Manicheans be. Neve that he was an independent, selfexistent spirit and that he is from all eternity, but I cannot be: Neve the suposition. ‘The very name itself expresses the character, antag: onic, malicious, and preverse nature ‘of both God and man, And from the teaching of the scriptures this fear- ful being, was apparently created one of the cherubim, and anointed for a position of great authority, perhaps over the primitive creation. (Ee. 28, 18-15.) but fell through his pride (Isa. 14, 1244.) Notice his remarks in (Isa, 14-13, ) “I will” which marks the introduction of sin into the uni: verse, but God sald he should . be ‘cast down. And in (Luke. 10-18) he Js seen falling from heaven, He makes the earth and air the scene of his tireless activity (Bph. 2-2) (1 Pet. 58.) Satan Introduced Sin Into the World. After the creation of man, he un: dertook and effected the high and lofty standing of man with God. Entering into the garden of Eden he eguiled her, The Edenic form is not to be thought of as a writhing reptile, for this is the effect of the Sa vee eae) sae Sere which Ient itself to Satan may well have been the most beautiful as well as it were the most “subtile” of crea- tures less than man. ‘Traces of that beauty remain says one writer des- pite the curse, “Every movement of 4 serpent is graceful and many spec: tes are beautifully colored, Having secured the downfall of Adam the whole race of mankind become sin- ners, Hence the introduction of sin into the world, (Rom, 3, 10, 11, 12, 28) Adamic Covenant. But God has promised the ultimate destruction of Satan through the “SEED” of the woman (Gen. 2, 14. 19.) Then began Satan's iong war fare against the work of God in be- half of humanity, ‘This is still going ‘on until this very moment (Rev. 1% 8.) The present world-system organ- {zed upon the prinetples of force. ‘greed. selfishness, ambition and sin fol pleasure, is the work of Satan, and was the bribe which he offered Christ (Matt, 4, 89) Of that world svstem satan is the prince (John. 14, 20:16, 11) and God (2 Cor. 4-4.) And ‘as “prince of the air” (Eph. 2.2) he is at the head of a vast host of de- ae ane fit ap ae ‘able of entering and controlling both ‘men and beasts. (Mark 5, 8, 9-11.) Until the resurrection of Christ Satan had the power of death. (feb. 2, 14.) But Christ at his resurrection robed Satan of the keys of death and hell, (Rey. 1, 8) Cast out of heaven as his proper sphere and “first estate” he still has access to God as the “accuser of the brethren (Rey. 12, 10 And is permitted a certain power of sifting or testing the self-confident and carnal among believers. (Job. 1, G11, Luk. 22, 31, 32. 1 Cor. &, 1, Fy But this is strictly permissive amd limited power, and believers are so sifted are kept in faith through the advocacy of Christ Jesus. (Lak, 22, 51, 22; 1 John, 2. 1.) The advo. cacy is the work of Christ for sinning saints which He carries on with the Father whereby, because of the eter- nal efficacy of His own sacrifice, He restores them to fellowship. Psa. 2%, 6; [dob 8.) This should inspire every believer in Christ Jesus. At the beginning of the great tribulation Satan's privilege of access to God as accuser will be withdrawn (Rev. 12, 712) and at the return of Christ in glory Satan will be bound for a thous: and years. (Rev. 12, 2.) after whtch he will be loosed for a little season, (Rev, 20, 9, 7, 8) And become the head of a final effort to overthrow the kingdom. Defeated in this, he will be finally cast into the lake of fire, his final doom, Then heaven and earth will break forth into sing- ing glory to God worthy is the Lamb.

More than a thousand people were unable to gain admittance to the church which was packed to its capacity and the sermon was delivered by District Superintendent Lee assisted by Dr. B. F. Abbott, pastor of Union Memorial Church, St. Louis, and many other ministerial brethren. The following letter was received by The Sun from William J. Devoe, Evan gelist of St. Louis, Mo.; Telegrams and letters of condolence were received from many friends among whom were: Rev. F. S. Bowles Louisiana, Mo.; Rev. Wm.

The Methodist Ministers' Alliance of St. Louis, Mo.; and many others. A peculiar coincidence in Dr. Davis death was that he had prepared to preach on the Sunday following his death upon the "Seven words of Jesus." divided as follows: A mighty Prince in Israel has fallen in the person of Rev, Richard Davis, D.D., while the great Centeniel M. E. Church will lament his death and absence from them. Heavy en will rejoice at his coming. This world is the land of the dying; the next is the land of the living." This reminds us of the fact that all created comforts. God is the lender; you are the borrower, not the owner Amid the gathering gloom of the even tide when the services had been concluded and the final words had been spoken and all that mortal man could do had been performed, the funeral cortege was formed and wending its way to beautiful Highland Cemetery, the body of this beloved saint of Christ was lowered to its earthly resting place and as the preacher said, "Earth to earth and ashes to ashes" it seemed as though angels lighted up the athering gloom and a mighty host in heaven sang: "SERVant of God well done, Rest from thy blest employ; The battle fought, the victory won, Enter the Master's joy." 18c.

I was shocked when someone called me over my phone and informed me that your husband and my friend, the Rev. R. C. Davis, had passed into the great beyond. I am writing to inform you that you have my heartfelt sympathy and my prayer to God is that He will give you grace to bear up under your affliction. Reverend Davis was an ideal preacher. While in Kansas City I always went to him for council and left him with a better understanding how to face the perplexing problems of church work. I regret so very much his death.

A Christmas trce, decorated by the employees, added to the scene and the pride which every employee took in making ready for the parties was most commendable and appreciated.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION. BILLY KING PLEASES. That Kansas City Negroes appreciate and will support worthy theatrical enterprises of their own race has been amply evidenced by the attendance of the Auditorium theater during the past two weeks where Billy King's Musical Stock Co., has been pleasing thousands and turning away hundreds nightly who were unable to gain admission. It is conceded by all that Mr. King has the best Negro company seen in this city since the days of Williams and Walker, and he is entitled to all the success he is enjoying this season. Billy King's personal popularity draws hundreds in this city as well as the popularity of Billy Higgins, Marshall Rogers, Edith Parnell and Ollie Burgoyne all former Kansas Citizens but the superior excellence of his entire company which has not a weak member in it, is what "gets the money." Mr. Geo Coleman one of our prosperous and industrious citizens bought one of the beautiful little homes in the Hollie addition now being sold by Mr. H. B. Allen. Every Colored man in this great city should make an effort to get him a home under such favorable conditions as are now offered. Another happy purchaser was Mr. Geo. Wilcox, who for 15 years has been employed with the South Western Iron Works bought a beautiful five room bungalow in Hollie Addition from the same company. Both of these gentlemen are highly pleased with their purchases and recommend this addition highly to every prospective purchaser. Mr. S. J. Hightower of 2433 Highland avenue was very sorrowfully surprised as well as displeased last Monday night when sometime between sun down and sunrise, a party or parties entered the sacred domain of his chickenyard and quietly departed, taking with them the contents of the chicken house which amounted to thirteen. Well the Editor sympathizes with you, he lost eleven last week. HELP THE BOY SCOUTS. Mr. N. C. Crews. I wish to thank you for the notes in your paper r of the 10th inst concerning the Boy Scouts. These hints will I hope cause our people to take more interest in the Boy Scouts Organization, which has for its purpose the building up of a good character and true Citizenship in the Boys. Scouting is new amongst the Colored people and the majority know nothing at all of the work. They see the Boy in the Kaki Uniforms on the streets and in parades and some of them think that is all there is in it, but it is not. Scouting is the one Organization for the boy and its whole object is to help the boy in strength, health, happiness and a practical education. More men are needed in this work and in addition to the pleasure and happiness that the boys get out of the bikes and camps, it teaches them to be loyal, trustworthy, helpful, courteous, obedient and reverent. I hope Mr. Crews that you may from time to time date a little space in your paper in the B. S. A. for the benefit especially of the Color- ed boys of America. Respectfully, EUGENE G. LACEY.

HAPPENINGS in the CITIES On His Way to Break the Bank at Monte Carlo On His Way to Break the Bank at Monte Carlo SAN FRANCISCO.—Is the prince of Monaco shivering in his shoes? If he isn't, he'd better be. For somewhere between here and Monte Carlo and still going strong is Edward ("Tiny") Canfield of this neck of woods. He says he's going to be "The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo, No. 2." He says he's got a million dollars with which to do the breaking, and he bet a thousand dollars he'd do it, before leaving here. Canfield was last heard of in Paris, where he was wearing diamonds worth $20,000 and traveling in his own limousine. By wire he reserved the royal suite at Monte Carlo and added: "Rake together all the forth after this fashion in Paris: this year, and I bet Hauser I'd do the $1,000 I couldn't do it.

Well, Tom Morris is only 125, but "I busted Tin Juana wide open this year, and I bet Hauser I'd do the same at Monte Carlo. Hauser bet me $1,000 I couldn't do it.

Nebraska Has Old Man to Rival Kentucky's Boast WESTVILLE, NEBR.—Tom Morris is Westville's candidate for honor of being the oldest man in America. John Shell, the Kentucky mountaineer, is said to be 131. Well, Tom Morris, is only 125, but he is 125—no guesswork about it. He has the old family Bible containing the record of his birth on January 15, 1794. And he has other records and proofs. His age is not a matter of tradition. It is an authenticated fact. The old man is not in good health, by any means. He is blind. Also, he is almost deaf. Blindness came on a couple of years ago. Deafness is approaching. He has been lame for something over a hundred years. He eats five meals every day and smokes his pipe about sixteen to eighten hours every day. But went dry he took a drink of whisky whenever he could get it. plains bitterly that a thirst he spent more than a century in cannot be appeased.

"We have no news of him yet," he says pityingly. "Lucius Subit, wasn't it? Disappeared Saturday, ostensibly to go to work. Had $." O'Brien takes the woman into his private office. He tells her that there is a body at the county morgue; it might be her husband. Presently the woman, calmed after a moment of hysteria, leaves with Policeman Fred Weaver for the morgue. There is a body. No, it is not her husband. "Thank God for that!" They are going out. They are near the door. And suddenly the woman screams. "That is his overcoat! Lucius, where are you? Lucius!"

We'll say it isn't, and here's the proof. Four young ladies, workers in a branch of the war department in Washington, recently read that there was a shortage of the gentier sex in Alaska. After deliberation they indited a joint letter to the honorable mayor of this city which read, in part, as follows: "As there are so few men here and so many women, possibly Alaska and the states could be brought closer together in the way of your men and our women.

THE KANSAS CITY SUN, SATURDAY, JANUARY 17, 1920 Western Newspaper Union Among many other things that absorb the attention of home dress-makers, busy with spring sewing, there are negligees to be provided for hours of leisure. Now is the best time for making these luxurious and inspiring frivolities of the wardrobe. Gay new spring materials are here, and the business of sewing is in hand. January and February ought to see underthings for the family and negligees, housedresses, service clothes for the housewife, about disposed of. Certainly the pretty negligees should not be overlooked. Negligees are usually in two garments, that is an underslip and a coat, or trousers and coat. These styles are about equally popular and the trousers are like those worn by Chinese women or patterned after those of India. Sometimes a long skirt is draped as to suggest trousers and in any case these picturesque suits are fascinating. In the picture trousers of crepe-de-chine have double frills of narrow knife plating about the ankles. The coat is much like a short klimon and it is edged with wide laces. A silk Coats Stylish and Practical Coats Stylish and Practical 5 D It used to be that, to call a garment "practical" was about equivalent to calling it "commonplace," but that day has gone by. More and more the intangible element of style is demanded and commands a very tangible and substantial return in money. The two coats shown in the picture above will first catch the eye because of their smart style and then will bear study as thoroughly practical. The suppleness of the season's coatings makes it easy for designers to do unusual things, as in the coat shown at the left of the picture, where odd capelike extensions are set in at the sides and the body of the coat is joined to a deep yoke with many rows of machine stitching. Everything in the model is on a generous scale, even the handsome buttons are extra large. The very wide muffler collar wrap about the throat in the cozier manner possible. In a less fluffy material these ideas could not be carried out. Weaving Ribbons Many ribbons are woven of as r as 12 colors of looms which two many only about two and a half inch out a day. These ribbons are yards in most interesting designs seen in the of ancient and barbaric, frequently Those showing the bricc inspiration, really considered by human figure are Egyptian figures far the smarter, with lotus leaves heads intermingled and entertaining and other historic cleverly shaping little scenes, ar bons are down. The brocaded r fashioned more or less cord and tassel is suspended from the cont at each side, falling from a small bow of ribbon. These tassels and cords have no particular reason for being where they are, except to look pretty; they do add to the grace of the cont by weighting it. There is no attempt to follow the style that inspires a negligee with fidelity to the original. The Chinese cord and tassel idea is used along with very pert little ribbon bows having an American flavor, and ribbon rosette with long ends at the front. Such sensible things as the combination undergarment for a little girl, shown in the picture, must share attention with beautiful negligees in the spring sewing. The body and knickers are cut in one, the former gathered into an elastic band at the knee or on a straight band that buttons. Neck and short sleeves are finished with button-hole stitching over the edges of small scallops, and the same garment is made with lower neck and sleeves less for midsummer wear. The weight of the muslins used varies, too, according to the season for which the combinations are made. At the right of the picture there is a very smart bloused model, cut with kimono body and sleeves joined full skirt under a wide, crushie a The wide collar is gathered belt, neck and turns over. The at the and bottom of the skirt offs, collar lished with large disks are embel of a silver dollar, about the size be made of French which appear set thickly toget knots in silk considerably mer.

(Copyright, 1920, Western Newspaper Union) LESSON FOR JANUARY 18 THE BOLDNESS OF PETER AND JOHN. LESSON TEXT-Acts 41-31. GOLDEN TEXT-Watch you, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. ADDITIONAL MATERIAL-Mattel: 5:10- 12; Acts 5:12-42; II Tim. 4:6-8, 16-18; Heb. 12, 38. PRIMARY TOPIC—The Story of Two Brave Men. JUNTOR TOPIC—Peter and John Standing Up for Jesus. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC-Courage to Do the Right. 1. Peter and John Arrested (vv. 1-4). The healing of the lame man caused a great stir. The apostles took advantage of the occasion to teach the people concerning Jesus. The number of the disciples increased to about 5,000. Such a large following in so short a time naturally caused alarm. 1. By Whom Arrested (vv. 1, 2). The priests and Sadducees. The priests were intolerant because these new teachers were encroaching upon their ministerial functions. The Sadducees opposed them from doctrinal consideration. They denied the resurrection from the dead and the future life. Although they were the intellectual liberalists of their day they were cruelly intolerant. The most outstanding bigots of our day are the professed intellectuals whose watchword is "scholarship." 2. The Result (vv. 3, 4). Peter and John were now put in confinement till the next day, it being too late for trial that day. Though the apostles were held by chains Christ continued to work, for the number of believers had now greatly increased. Opposition helps God's cause. The storms of adversity only fan the flames of Christian enthusiasm. "Christ is not bound." 1. Peter and John on Trial (vv. 5-12). 1. The Inquiry (vv. 5-7). They were asked. "By what power, or in what name, have ye done this?" This inquiry admitted the reality of the miracle. 2. Peter's Answer (vy. 8-12). With stinging sarcasm he showed them that they were not being tried as evil doers, but for doing good to the helpless and needy man. He showed the absurdity of dealing with men as criminals who had merely relieved the suffering and helpless man from distress—thus the rulers were placed in a most ridiculous and embarrassing position. Since they could not deny the miracle, Peter boldly declared, "It known into you all, and to a" LOOK! LOOK! LOOK! COME AND SEE. HERE IS.
