From the January 1890 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Mabel was out walking with her nurse one day and they passed two newsboys quarreling. Mabel spoke to them and said "Love is the fulfilling of the law." That was all, and she walked on. When she reached the Park who should come running after her but one of the newsboys. "Miss" he called. She stopped and waited for him to come up. "Thank'ee, miss, fur what ye done!" he said as soon as he could get his breath. "Mose an' me stopped fightin' an' don't feel as ef we ever wanted to agin! He said to tell ye, miss, an' thank ye, fur ye spoke like a 'yangel.'"

The word was spoken with power and "signs following" in this instance and by a child of only seven summers.
