    There was this little girl and she was very holy and she was dying and there was no one in the room, and her mother went into the room where the child was.
    The little girl said "I have only one sin on my soul and that is I stole 6d out of a girl's bag in school and if you give it to her I will be in heaven.
    The mother paid it to the girl.
    She did not speak after that.
