I went in search of him, a little boy. Adjacent to the large room where all the children were, over whom presided the Teacher, was a large porch. It was bitterly cold and out there crouched a cat, a very large, fat cat, that was very fierce. As I went out, the moment I opened the door a little bit it tried to get into the room, but I pushed it back and held it by its neck, preventing it from coming in. It was very fierce, but it could not hurt or scratch me one bit. It somehow belonged to me, yet I felt exceedingly sorry for him being kept out there, because it was so cold. But I did not let him in. I searched for the boy, but could find no trace of him. The room was fully lighted and outside was very dark and cold. |

I could actually feel the peace and happiness coming out of that cabin. |
