TOM CAME to some of our gospel services not long ago. One night he stayed behind to the “after meeting” and found Christ. When he went home he did not run into the parlor and tell his dear mother, but went upstairs in the dark without any supper and went to bed.
About eleven o’clock when his father and mother went up to bed, Mother said, “I will just look in Tom’s room and see if he is all right." So she crept in softly not to wake him. He looked very happy in his sleep, but she noticed by the candlelight that his lips were moving, and she heard him whisper, “I am so glad that it is settled"; then a pause like snoring "Jesus has taken all my sins away"—another pause—“I am washed in the blood of the Lamb.”
When Tom ran down to breakfast in the morning, his mother told him what he had said in his sleep.
