Samuel the Seeker (Classic Reprint)

Samuel the Seeker CHAPTER I SAMUEL, said old Ephraim; Seek, and ye shall find. He had written these words upon the little picture of Samuel smother, which hung in that corner of the old attic which served as the boys bedroom; and so Samuel grew up with the knowledge that he, too, was one of the Seekers. Just what he was to seek, and just how he was to seek it, were matters of uncertainty they were part of the search. Old Ephraim could not tell him very much about it, for the Seekers had moved away to the West before he had come to the farm; and Samuel smother had died very young, before her husband had a chance to learn more than the rudiments of her faith. So all that Samuel knew was that the Seekers were men and women of fervour, who had broken with the churches because they would not believe what was taught holding that it was every mans duty to read the Word of God for himself and to follow where it led him.
