Lisle Kingsley, unaware that her name had been set down among the victims that the saboteurs were arranging to use to attain their ends, went happily on about her war work, Red Cross classes, and her university course. But none of those led her into a neighborhood where plans such as had been discussed would be easily carried out without detection. And approaching examinations kept her busy with her studies, too busy to go to the Bible classes she longed to attend. Thus God protected her.

John Sargent wrote her a brief and deeply grateful note after the lovely flowers reached his grandmother.

I can never tell you what those flowers did for my grandmother. To understand it, you would have had to see her eyes when she looked at them, and to have known her expressive eyes through the years as I have done, to read the almost glorified look of wonder that she wore when I brought them near her face and she caught the heavenly fragrance. I know she smelled them, for she drew deep breaths, as if she was fairly reveling in them. Then her eyes looked at me with a question in them. You see, she knows I would not feel I could buy flowers just now, and she wanted to know who sent the flowers, so I told her it was a friend of mine whom I had told about her, and I gave her your name. I think she knew the name. Your family, of course, is well known, and there was surprise in her eyes that I should know you. So I told her of the blackout and how we came to know one another. I told her about the Bible class, and there was great joy in her face, a kind of glory, if it is right to use that term about a human being.

So I thank you from my heart for your kind flowers. I do not know if you have been to the class again, because my work has changed to the night shift and I work from four until midnight, so I have missed the class myself, much against my wish. But I trust that the Lord will guide you into His truth.

I am enclosing a little booklet that you may like to see, about the soon-coming of the Lord.

Thank you again for your kindness,

John Sargent
