As he was pushing her to the ward door in
the wheelchair, she turned with eyes like the
brightest stars and said, "On the way must
buy roses"
''Roses for Sister Rosa, eh?"
''She loves them have some money"
He murmured, lust minute, " and left
her alone in the chair in the long corridor.
He was back in thirty seconds, with guilty
look on his face and four pink roses in his
hand - the first Towering of Matron's cher
ished bushes. "Fresher than shop ones, " he
said, land nothing to pay"
While he wheeled her past the main exit,
Su Mel was arranging them into bouquet.
She only looked up, puzzled, when he
knocked on door half way down another
long corridor and opened it few inches.
"A visitor for you. Sister Rosa" he said
1T WAS tiny room, flooded with soft re-
Aected sunlight. On bed, propped high
with pillows, lay gaunt old woman, her
face almost as white as the lining of the
nuns hood that shaded it. The fever chart
above the bed traced a graph spelling danger
to anyone, like Richard Brown, who under
stood it. And above the graph was written
Sister Bo,s0UenturG. the name that had been
too difficult for the tongues of small Chinese
orphans.
There was cry from the bed.
"Su Meii All, God bless you, my child!
Another prayer answered. 3" Thin, trem-
bling fingers fluttered out to take the flowers
and the hand that offered them. "And rosesw
And message" the child said, her eyes
glowing. Leaning from her chair, Su Mel
placed the tightly rolled scarlet silk scroll,
now freed of its waterproofed covering, in
the hand of the old woman. Then she helped
the shaking fingers unfurl the long ribbon
embroidered with Chinese characters.
Read the message, Sister Rosa" she
said, with the simple excitement of child
at Christmas tree.
Richard Brown went to the far side of the
bed and held one end of the scarlet ribbon
while Su Mel held up the other, and Sister
Rosa read the message embroidered on it.
She read the Chinese script slowly from
right to left, unconsciously whispering the
words in English with an accent that echoed
Naples and Manhattan.

smallest years and will love until we are as

roses and whispered prayer.

teachers tell us lies about you, Sister Rosa,
and the other sisters. They say you fooled
US and filled our minds with corruption.
China has much to forget, they say. You
must forget those foreign women who helped
to make the Chinese into slaves"
Su Mel was beautiful as she raised her
head little and went on, But we never
forget you. They would not let us come and
say good-by when you carue out of prison
and went to Canton, but every day we
remember and every night we pray for you.

US kneeling to pray, as you taught US. so we

day was near, and how you loved birthdays
and made ours so happy, we wanted to send
you message. Only we didn't know your
address. So we decided, in the dark in our
dormitory, that we would embroider greet

HERE was a party Richard Brown was
going to be late for, but he had no thought
of leaving just now. The spectacle of healing
was what he most loved, and here was
miracle-healing for two simple hearts -
healing, even, for one sick body Only one;
not the other. 1t was clear to him that
Sister Rosa, who loved birthdays, would
never see another.
