mother, asked if that was her real name. “Her sure nuff name,
Miss,” was the reply. “Young Miss, she done names de chile. I was
stayin’ dar on de ole place, after de war, da _pays_ me an’ my ole
man, kase we’se free, an’ we stays wid ’em a long spell. My little
gal was born dar, an’ young Miss Sue, she say she so little an
frail her name should allus be Lady. We calls her Lady most times,
but her sure nuff name is Lady Agnes Hamilton. Miss Sue done writ
it down. Lady feel mighty bad kase de teacher reckon her name
somefin else. Nary odder name Miss, an’ dats de truff.” Her right
and title thus established, the teacher no longer questioned the
sweet-faced little Lady, and indeed, soon came to believe that the
child belonged to nature’s true nobility. She was always, in school
and out, a veritable little lady. Mingling with the dusky children,
who were her playmates, some of them dirty and ragged, while her
own garments were always daintily neat she never manifested any
conscious superiority, but was always sweet and gentle and happy,
whether the rain fell or the sun shone. The secret of her wonderful
sweetness and gentleness was not in that her name was Lady, nor
because she was a lady, but because very soon after the school
began, this little girl, only seven years old, gave her heart to
Jesus, and became as truly one of his children, as though she had
waited until she was twenty.
Jesus, her Saviour, was a real presence to her—a wonderful Friend,
ever near to help her, and she was careful in what she said and
did, because she was anxious to please Him in everything.
Often the little brown head dropped on the desk before her, and for
a few moments she was very still—then, when she lifted her face,
the soft eyes always sought her teacher’s face, and a loving look
was exchanged. The teacher knew that little Lady had been given a
victory over some temptation that had beset her childish heart. At
such moments she was very beautiful, perhaps it was the beauty of
Heaven shining in her small, dark face.
But she did not die because she was so good, as is sometimes said
of good children. It is a blessed truth that many good children
_live_ long lives of usefulness, in which they are able to do
greater things for the Master, because they began to love and serve
Him when they were little children. Lady Agnes Hamilton was for
many years a student in one of the institutions of the South, and
is now the wife of a minister of the gospel, leading a happy and
useful life.
