A wheelbarrow is in the middle of the floor.

Jacob takes off his jacket, and with it brushes the cotton-seed away from one side of the wheelbarrow, lays the jacket down for his master to kneel upon, and goes to the other side.

Like Jacob at Peniel, he has power over the angel, and prevails; he weeps and makes supplication unto him.

The master breaks out in prayer.

He rises and says,-- "Jacob, forgive me if I've been unkind to you; I've seen that you are a Christian; now if you want to leave me for anybody else, say so." "Thank you, massa; only sarve de Lord with gladness for all de good things he has done for you, and I'll sarve you de same.
