, Aunt Win." "Go on, lad! There was more,--there was more," said the old woman, eagerly. After a moment's pause, Dan added, in a voice that had grown low and reverent: "That God was calling me to His own. And, Aunt Win,--Aunt Win" (there was a new light in the blue eyes uplifted to her face), "I am finding that out, too." But it is a long way to the starlit heights of Aunt Winnie's dream,--a long, hard way, as Danny knows. We leave him climbing sturdily on over its rocky steeps and sunlit stretches, but finding many a sunlit resting place on the way. Brightest of all these to Danny is Killykinick, where he goes every summer to spend a happy holiday,--to boat, to swim, to fish, to be "matey" again with the two old men, who look for his coming as the joy of the year. "It's hurrah! hurrah, Aunt Win!" he wrote jubilantly one glad summer day. "Your Danny is at work before time, doing a little missionary business already. Two real true converts, Aunt Win,--baptized yesterday! It was the 'Padre's preaching' that set Jeb thinking first, and then he got hold of some of Great-uncle Joe's books. I sort of took a hand, and altogether we've got the dear old chaps into the fold. Peter and Andrew,--they chose the names themselves, even good old Neb's dull wits seeming to wake at his Master's call. Brother Bart's prayers for his old friends have been answered. The Light is shining on Killykinick, Aunt Win,--the Light is shining on Killykinick!" End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of Killykinick, by Mary T.
