Excerpt from Selling Things
Soon after Henry Ward Beecher went to Plymouth Church he received a letter from a Western parish, asking him to send them a new pastor. After describing the sort of man they wanted, the letter closed with the following injunction: "Be sure to send us a man who can swim. Our last pastor was drowned while fording the river, on a visit to his parishioners."
