Douglas, A: In the Ranks (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from In the Ranks

There was a little thrill of thankfulness in Ka thie's heart. She was learning what was meant by the scriptural injunction, In everything give thanks. Not to save all her mercies and pleas ures to hurry over in a brief prayer at bedtime, but to think of them as they came, hour by hour. Neither did the old ones slip out of her mind. And this morning it seemed such a dear and infinite blessing that Mr. Morrison had not been called upon to die in her uncle's stead, and that Mr. Meredith was almost his Olden self again. N o evil had happened to them or theirs, though many a home in the land had been filled with mourn ing.

Then her thoughts veered round a little, as if blown about by the fresh south-wind.
