Hastings
A young man who fell down from a third storey while sleeping during St. Paul's sermon at Troas, and was 'taken up dead' (Ac 20:9). St. Paul fell on him and, embracing him, declared life to be in him. It is not actually said that Eutychus was dead, but that seems at least to have been the general belief. The incident is described in parallel terms with the raising of Dorcas and of Jairus' daughter.
