SUFFERING OF THE PEOPLE.

I remember a man came to our house one morning and two little boys were

with him. Father had gone with Toney and Lewis out to chop wood a short

distance from the house. The man came in with the children and asked to

see father. Grandpa was so afraid to be alone with the Mormon he said,

"Me no want you keel me. Me give you everything in the house you no keel

me." The man said, "No, I don't want to hurt you. My children are

hungry." Charley ran out to tell father to come, then the man explained

how hungry his family were, having no bread and no money to buy. Father

gave them something to eat, and soon the children were sitting with

Charley and me eating bread and butter. Father gave flour and other

things for the man to carry home.
