THE HAPrr PEOPLE
By ?
SABA JENKINS
It tock Stephen Elliott the long
and hard way to And that in his
weakness lay his strength. When he
came to Kinsman, Georgia, as the
new pastor of the small Methodist
church, he brought With him a firm
determination to let nothing inter
fere with the carrying out of his
; convictions. But his faith in him
I self received a distinct shock and
weakening when he discovered in
his congregation, the beautiful
Claire Collins. The thought that
she was there in Kinsman was such
a meijtal blow that his carefully
prepared sermon scattered around
in his brain like paper blown in
the wind, and became meaningless
to him.
His widowed sister, Elizabeth
Marsden, who, with her small son,
made her home with Steve, quick
ly realized what had happened and i
a wave of red anger flooded her
I whole being. She remembered, only
too well, how the sudden breaking
of Claire's engagement to Sieve
and the, equally sudden marriage to
wealthy Bruce Winthrop, had near
ly ruined her brother's career.
Later, after the services were
over, Steve talked with Claire and
learned that sne had divorced her
husband and had come to Kinsman
to be1 with her sister, Paula, the
second wife of J. G. Kinsman, III,
the autocratic owner of huge cot
ton mills and the virtual ruler of
the small to>vn. Steve, too, learned
that Claire had been instrumental
in his being called to this small
church, and the fact that he was
indebted to Claire was deeply re
sented by Steve.
Others playing large parts in
Steve's determined resolution to
make good in his chosen field were
blind Mrs, Palen who lived a life
of such beauty that it was a daily
inspiration to the young minister.
