Kidnapped by River Rats

A Story about William and Catherine Booth
by Dave and Neta Jackson

This is about two children whose Father had died and Mother was taking them to find their Uncle. While they were trying to find him their mother died and the lady that they were staying with told them to get out. So they had to live on the streets. It was very hard for them. Once two people stole the sister. People would steal girls of her age to take overseas as slaves. Her brother went to the Salvation Army and asked for help to rescue her. When she was rescued, the brother and sister were taken to the house where Catherine Booth and her husband lived. They asked her if she knew where their uncle was because she used to have clothes made by him. She told them that he had left but that they could stay at their house. Then two of the people from the Salvation Army asked if they could adopt the two children. So they adopted them and the children were very happy.
