When Little Lindy Sang (1916)

Lindy is a little colored girl who is the possessor of a fine, big voice. Every time the class in school sings she raises her voice above the rest and the other children say they will not sing with her. But the teacher consoles her and says that someday she will have an opportunity to use the gift that God has given her. The next day the school catches on fire and there is a stampede for the door. But Lindy has the presence of mind to burst into song and the children are calmed. In the fire Lindy is hurt. The children now repent of the way they have treated her and bring flowers to the hospital to make amends.
