Listen from:
Old Isabel Chrystie was over 90 years of age and had long been on the heavenly way.
When the old pilgrim lay dying, she was unable to recognize family, friends or preacher. To each inquiry she still replied, “I do not ken you.”
At last the question was put to her; “Isabel, do you ken Christ?”
The countenance of the dying saint brightened at the sound of her Saviour’s name. Looking up with a smile, she promptly replied, “That I do, but nay say muckle as I would like, and will do by and by.”
That night the aged believer went to be with Him whom she remembered and knew when all others were forgotten and unknown.
