Mr. F. Mark­ham, con­nect­ed with a large and well-known pi­a­no fac­to­ry, was lead­ing an un­god­ly and heed­less life, says a Lon­don per­i­od­ic­al. One day he saw an an­nounce­ment that Moody and Sank­ey were to open a miss­ion at St. Pan­cras that ev­en­ing. In­stant­ly he re­solved to go and hear the sing­ing. He and a com­pan­ion reached the hall in good time, as they thought, on­ly to find it crowd­ed to the doors. An over­flow meet­ing was an­nounced at a neigh­bor­ing church, and thi­ther they went. By and by Mr. Sank­ey sang ‘To the hall of the feast came the sin­ful and fair.’ As Markham list­ened, his past life seemed to rise be­fore him; the tears rushed into his eyes; his heart seemed brok­en. Com­ing out, he asked his com­pan­ion what he thought of it. ‘Oh,’ was the care­less re­ply, ‘he is a nice sing­er.’ ‘Is that all? It has brok­en my heart.’ Ere long he could say, in the words of the song, ‘He looked on his lost one; my sins are for­giv­en.’ When he got home his wife was amazed at what had come over him, and could not make out where he had been. She had been con­vert­ed years before, but had back­slid­den. She ac­com­pa­nied him to the mis­sion on the fol­low­ing ev­en­ing, and was hap­pi­ly re­ceived. The man be­came a Christ­ian work­er, and is the found­er and su­per­in­tend­ent of the Tah­hall Road Fac­to­ry Lads’ Home and In­sti­tu­tion.
