By his upright, kind behavior and willingness to work, he soon begins supporting himself and becomes well-liked in the community, especially by the children.Ned helps his nephew, Billy, to overcome his fear of the dark by teaching him about the power of God. He also helps a servant girl, Mary, to break her habit of dishonesty by showing her the importance of honesty and integrity.The design of this story is unique, as each chapter demonstrates a new fruit of the Spirit as described in Galatians 5:22-23.
