“Ye Shall Be Witnesses
Unto Me”
The train pulled into the sta
tion. Up and down beside the
train several boys moved as they
sought to sell their wares—ap
ples, peanuts, candy, and so forth
—to the passengers looking out
their windows. One of the boys,
Bill, was a crippled lad who could
not move as rapidly as the others
but depended for his selling on the
beautiful “shine” he put on his
apples before the trams came in.
Bill was standing at the car
step as the train stopped. A man
in a hurry stepped off and not
seeing the little crippled lad bump
ed into him and sent him sprawl
ing in the dust—scattering his
beautiful apples everywhere. And
the man went on. Another man
stepped off and took in the situa
tion at a glance. He stopped,
helped Bill to his feet, picked up
the basket and the apples, wiped
them off with a clean handker
chief, bought a few, and started
off.
The boy’s look held him for a
moment. Then shortly the boy’s
wavering voice asked, Mister,
be you Jesus?”
“No, son,” he replied, “I am
not Jesus. Whv do you ask
that?”
“I heard,” said the boy, “that
there was a man named Jesus,
-who went abou’^ doing good things
for people; am you are the only
person who ever did anything
like this for me. I thought you
must be Jei'us.”
