  • We sang together.

  • We prayed together.

  • We listened quietly while Mother read Bible and Book of

  • Mormon stories.

  • Father told us stories out of his memory.

  • I still remember one of those stories.

  • I found it recently while going through a book he had

  • published some years ago.

  • Listen to it:

  • "An older boy and his young companion were walking along a

  • road which led through a field.

  • They saw an old coat and a badly worn pair of men's shoes

  • by the roadside, and in the distance they saw the owner

  • working in the field.

  • The younger boy suggested that they hide the shoes, conceal

  • themselves, and watch the perplexity on the owner's face

  • when he returned.

  • The older boy ...

  • thought that would not be so good.

  • He said [this]

  • owner must be a very poor man [from the

  • looks of his clothes].

  • So, after talking the matter over, at his suggestion, they

  • concluded to try another experiment.

  • Instead of hiding the shoes, they would put a silver dollar

  • in each one and ... see what the owner did when he

  • discovered the money.

  • So [that's what they did].

  • Pretty soon the man returned from the field, put on his

  • coat, slipped one foot into a shoe, felt something hard,

  • took it out and found a silver dollar.

  • Wonder and surprise [shone]

  • upon his face.

  • He looked at the dollar again and again, turned around and

  • could see nobody, then proceeded to put on the other

  • shoe; when to his great surprise he

  • found another dollar.

  • His feelings overcame him. ...

  • He knelt down and offered aloud a prayer of

  • thanksgiving, in which he spoke of his wife being sick

  • and helpless and his children without bread. ...

  • He fervently thanked the Lord for this bounty from unknown

  • hands and evoked the [blessings]

  • of heaven upon those who had given him this needed help.

  • The boys remained [hidden]

  • until he had gone." They had been touched by his prayer and

  • felt something warm within their hearts.

  • As they left to walk down the road, one said to the other,

  • "Now really, don't you have a good feeling?"

We sang together.
