Teddy drew a long breath, and when the rector paused, he cried enthusiastically, 'Please go on, sir. I like to hear it. Will God let me hold up the banner for Him?'

TEDDY DREW A LONG BREATH AND WHEN THE RECTOR PAUSED HE CRIED ENTHUSIASTICALLY PLEASE GO ON SIR I LIKE TO HEAR IT WILL GOD LET ME HOLD UP THE BANNER FOR HIM IF YOU HAVE ENLISTED IN HIS SERVICE ARE YOU ONE OF HIS SOLDIERS I DON'T KNOW
