The Power and the Glory post #1

      It was strange occurrence, there was a girl who I would say was about thirteen years old but clearly had a passion for those who are weak and hurting. As she went about her business she was confronted by an officer of the law who from what I could pick up was looking for a priest who had managed to escape their wrath. When she met up with her father she took him to their barn and showed him that the priest was in fact hiding in their barn. The priest asks the girls father who goes by "Mr. Fellows" for some brandy, he refuses and refuses to give him anything, it was quite surprising considering Mr. Fellows is generally a jolly man.

      The girl, Fellows' daughter, is kind and compassionate, even though her father refuses the priest anything. Once he has gone to bed the girl sneaks into the kitchen to get some food for the stranger. When she brings him his food she seemed enthralled by his stories, she also seemed very concerned for him considering his situation. It was curious she mentions at one point that she does not believe in a God however she is inclined to feed him and feels bad for him breaking down those walls of religion so many people have. Likewise after the girl told that to the priest he was still able to get along with her and crack jokes and such, though the beer may play into that he still seems like quite a character not like the type the law would want dead.
