Signor_Brignoli once agreed to sing a | solo at St. Agnes’ Church in New York. He arrived late and the sermon had com- menced, but Brignoli, unabashed, leaned over the choir railing and tried to attract the attention of the preacher by shaking his head and gesticulating wildly. At last he yelled out in a voice that reached every corner of the church: ‘‘Me ready for ze sing. Stoppe ze preach! Stoppe ze preach!” And the priest actually cut the sermon short in order to accommodate the impatient tenor, whose voice now rang out with such fervor as to thrill the worship- ers and justify the sacrifice.—Chicago Daily News.
