Luke 19:1-10 And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.… A little Kaffir girl in South Africa came one day to the missionary and brought four sixpences, saying, "This money is yours." "No," said the missionary, "it is not mine." "Yes," persisted the little black girl, "you must take it. At the examination of the school you gave me a sixpence as a prize for good writing; but the writing was not mine, I got some one else to do it for me. So here are four sixpences." She had read the story of Zaccheus in Luke 19., and "went and did likewise." How much better was this than hiding her sin would have been! After a searching address by Mr. Moody, he next day received a check for £100, being fourfold the amount of which the sender had wronged an individual.
