THE BURNING FARMHOUSE Many years ago a two story farmhouse caught fire from unknown causes in rural McLennan , Texas and burned to the ground. THERE WAS NO FIRE DEPARTMENT THERE. There was NO 911. There were NO TELEPHONES. NO EMS. As members of that family and a couple of neighbors fanatically sought to salvage what few precious items they could from the home, . two young girls, sisters, stood beneath a large chinaberry tree in the corner of the yard; Both were watching, in horror, as their precious belongings as well as those of the family were being consumed by the raging fire. The younger sister tugged at the dress tail of the older sister, trying to get her attention . the older sister said What do you want? The younger sister looked up at her and said . somebody better get the baby . The older sister broke and ran back into the burning house, went up the stairs, then scooped up the tiny infant from a pallet where it lay on the floor, returning back down the stairs through the fire, and out into the yard to a place of safety.

TWO, The willingness of the older person to take action in this dangerous situation. (An action for which she would never have been criticized for not taking under the extraordinary circumstances existing at the time). THREE: The Baby was me (Maurice). Had it not been for the alertness of the two beautiful and heroic sisters, working together, using the best of what each had to offer, that little baby would never have lived long enough to know his name, two wonderful parents and seven other siblings. He would never have learned to tie a shoe, spin a top, catch a fish, ride a bike, jump a rope, go to school, or to meet and marry a wonderful lady, assist in parenting two children and to experience eight grandchildren, and see great grandchildren be born, grow, and flourish. He would never have had the opportunity to serve his country in the continued... |
