Page Eight THE CUNTON CHRONICLE Thursday, October 7, 1954 Hymn 3s Horn CUNT 4 BONNER as I Am The doctor stopped his carriage at the An gelica n parsonage in Brighton, England. But there was nothing in his medicine kit to help the paralyzed sister of the Rev. Henry V. Elliott. He was calling to offer his usual word of cheer and to leave one otf the little leaflets he had bought to distribute among his shut-in patients. The leaflets were selling all over England, he said, and were being translated into many for eign languages. And for a good cause, too. Someone had written a poem to help finance the building of a school for children of poor clergy men. It said so at the top of the page. . . . “Sold for the benefit of St. Margaret’s Hall, Brighton.” Under that, the line, “Him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out” Then came the six-verse poem. Tears welled in Charlotte Elliott’s eyes as she read the lines. Her memory went back to the Just as I am, without one plea, But that Thy blood was shed for me, And that Thou bidd'st me come to Thee, O Lamb of God, I cornel I cornel Just as I am, though tossed about With many a conflict, many a doubt.

That is, everybody except her ... a 46-year-old epinster who could hardly drag about the room:- Lonely and helpless, she had written a poem to console other invalids. She had sent it to a publisher in the hope that from its sale she could contribute a few shillings to her brother’s schooL And now, her little poem was bringing in more revenue than all the bazaars the town could give. The doctor was pleased with his call. He had left his patient so happy that she was crying. The following year Charlotte Elliott pub lished a whole book of hymns and she wrote rrany another before she died at the age' of 82. Perhaps the good doctor might have wept a little himself that day in 1834 had he known it was his patient who had written. . . .
