There the little boy, who was only nine years old, and so small that his fellow-workmen called him not much bigger than a last, toiled for several months until he could make a tolerable shoe, to his great pride and delight. He was much too young and small for his task, however, and it soon became evident that he lacked the strength to pursue the work.

He early became familiar with the Bible, and could repeat scores of verses by heart, but he did not realize their full meaning and power until his consecration to the cause of the slave led him to study the book anew. It was during the year 1824 that he first discovered his near-sightedness, and when he one day chanced to try t
