Description: “The city is full of boys. . . . Since we cannot reach all of them this week, we must try to reach seven; and failing in that, suppose we say one?” With this simple question, Flossy Roberts turns Alfred Ried's world and that of the South End Mission upside down! After the death of his sister, Ester, Alfred doggedly tries to follow in her footsteps, reaching out to others with the love of Christ. She had had so many grand scheme! Yet each Sunday as he faces the Sabbath school full of poor, rough, undisciplined boys, he knows he has failed not only Ester but also his Lord Jesus.When pretty, delicate Mrs. Roberts steps in to lend a hand, he is horrified. The boys will tear her limb from limb—he is sure of it! Yet her question and her diligence haunt both him and the boys.
