My great-great-great Grandfather, Noah Troyer, the "Sleeping Preacher" who spoke in tongues

I meant to post some stuff on my Grandpa Noah a couple years ago but never followed through. But here are a couple of links. I have many pages of photocopies of old newspaper articles and letters, but they're not online and I know nobody would be interested enough to be worth the effort of scanning and posting them. This will suffice.

He actually went on tour through the Midwest. He would be positioned before hundreds or thousands of people, and he'd go into a sleep-like trance, and then begin preaching for hours. Wacky stuff.
