The Travelling Companion (1)

The Travelling Companion (1)

  John's mother was dead, and he had no brother or sister, and so he was felt all alone when his good father died too.

  " You have always been a good son, " his father said to him just before he died, " and God will surely help you and be your side, "

  John sat and wept beside the bed where his dead father lay, and at last he fell asleep and dreamed a wonderful dream.

  The sun and moon greeted him, and there was his father alive well and laughing for joy.
  John saw a beautiful girl wearing a crown, holding out her hand to him.
  " What a fine princess you are marrying, " said John's father, and then poor John woke up all alone and sad again.

  After his father was burried, John set out to find his fortune in the world, and all that he took was a little bundle of clothes, fifty dollars and a few silver pennies.
