Description
Excerpt from Agnes, Daughter of William the Baptist: Or, the Young Theologian
She was small for one of her age. When thirteen years old most people would have taken her to be about nine or ten. When about thirteen sh''e expressed a desire to unite with the church. But she was told that she was too young. Besides, she did not seem to be very seriously inclined. In disposition she was frolicsome and full of fun, and her brothers said full of mischief. She was very obedient, and everyone thought her a good girl. But from her age and her fondness for fun her parents thought that her desire to unite with the church was a childish whim. But they were mistaken. For some weeks after she had been told that she was too young to unite with the church, as her mother after wards told me, she seemed to be unusually quiet, and often seemed to be meditating, as if in trouble. When asked if anything trou bled her, she would answer, No! And at once become as light-hearted as ever.
