"A sower went forth to sow, "but Dr. John Hill Luther, preaching an impassioned sermon on foreign missions and calling for volunteers, did not expect his appeal to find lodgment in the heart of his own twelve year old daughter. When she timidly rose to her feet and said, "Father, I'll go" he covered his face with his hands and exclaimed, "My child, I didn't mean you!"


From CENTENNIAL STORY OF TEXAS BAPTISTS, published by the Authority of the Executive board of the Baptist General Convention of Texas, Dallas, Texas, 1936, p. 235.
