The boy feared nothing, and craved simply that he might belong to us.

He had no place of shelter, no food; had been stolen from his parents, and was a helpless outcast.
The next morning, accompanied by Mrs.Baker, I went to the Mission and heard that the boy had borne an excellent character, and that it must have been BY MISTAKE that he had been turned out with the others.

This being conclusive, Saat was immediately adopted.

Mrs.Baker was shortly at work making him some useful clothes, and in an incredibly short time a great change was effected.

As he came from the hands of the cook, after a liberal use of soap and water, and attired in trousers, blouse, and belt, the new boy appeared in a new character.
From that time he considered himself as belonging absolutely to his mistress.
