\"\"Catherine Douglas Bell<\/em><\/p>\n

Left as an orphan in the care of a bustling, short-tempered aunt, young Mary Drummond feels heartbroken to think that she has not even a fragment of leisure to devote to the Master\u2019s service. Aunt Sally keeps Mary busy \u201cfrom morning to night\u201d in the exhausting attempt to care for five small children and preserve her house in spotless order at the same time.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are so many other things I\u2019d like to do for God,\u201d Mary mourns. \u201cAnd Aunt Sally says she can\u2019t spare me. If I am to be kept toiling and slaving the whole day long, how can I do service for God?\u201d<\/p>\n

But blind Annie takes a different view of the matter. Will Mary prove the truth of her old friend\u2019s secret? Or is Annie mistaken when she declares that Mary still has a precious opportunity to work for the Lord?<\/p>\n

Mary’s\u00a0<\/em>Secret<\/i>\u00a0is the fourth story in SAW Publishing\u2019s ongoing series of remastered historical tales.<\/p>\n
