However, he lost hisNerve when a lovely young woman opened the door.Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water! . She thought he lookedHungry so brought him a large glass

of milk. He drank it so slowly, andThen asked, How much do I owe you?"You don't owe me anything," she replied. "Mother has taught us never toAccept pay for a kindness."He said ... "Then I thank you from my heart."As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, butHis faith in God and man was strong also.
