“A Bible text in a frame and with a cord to hang it by. This was the text, ‘God will never, never forsake thee.’” But a surprise awaited him when he pushed open the door of his room.

Going home from school one Friday afternoon, Moses heard sniggering half-suppressed comments behind him. He walked along slowly, contemplating his big toe that protruded pathetically from a large hole in his shoe.

She was ordered to confine herself to her apartment till her innocence should be cleared, or her sister discovered. From Madame de Menon she received a faithful sympathy, which was the sole relief of her oppressed heart.
