| that when a cat she vowed that when
she became woman she would care
for all the stray cats she could find.
J Mrs. Freeman said:

/ poor little. abused alley cat. ANY

periences while an alley cat must have
been.
/ 1T is terrible, terrible to lead the
cat life in an alley. No soul can have
sorer trial. Clubbed kicked and
abused. l might have thought myself
/ the most ill-treated soul in the world
had I not met another little alley cat
/ whose lot was as pitiful as my own.
"A few years ago in Detroit | came
in contact with fellow Theosophist
through our common love for cats. In
! our conversation ! discovered that
she was that little alley cat of my pre-
vious life. We recalled how on one
bleak lay we, the two dirty little cats,
had made solemn pledge in our al
ley retreat. 1t was that we would
cherish other cats after our reincar-
nation in human bodies. I have not
disregarded that pledge of my cat
