The lad had visited the Valley of the Shadow at a very tender age, had for days been death Mr. Harvey and now was recov e r i n g. He was sick encugh to hurt, well enough to complain. He wanted to go home. On the day he was most miserable he was visited by a family friend who mentioned praying for him. "I at tend church regularly," the visitor said. Little Hilary Milton, 7, then said, "If I ever get well I am going to church every Sunday as long as I live!" He got well and he set out to keep that promise.

The boy's daddy died in April, 1933 on a Sunday. Though his heart was heavy with grief, Hilary Milton went to church. in 1838, when Hilary was 18, he agreed to an emergency appendectomy only when assured that the preacher would conduct a church service in his sickroom. Then there was a Sunday in August of 1942 when Aviation Cadet Hilary Milton, sta tioned in San Antonio, was assigned to hurricane duty. Though threatened by the ad vancing storm, he and 13 oth er cadets and three chaplains took time for a worship ser vice in a tent a tent which shortly thereafter was blown apart and blown away. Hilary graduated from the University of Alabama in 1949, his church attendance record yet intact. During the winter of 58, Hilary was grown, married, living in Washington, D.

And kept it. fought their way through the storm to the church and again Hilary kept his covenant. In 1962 Hilary joined NASA, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. In his spare time he wrote a book called "The Gitaway Box." No sex, no violence, no pornographybut a success none theless. believing on these things, all else shall be add" ed "... ... End of January, 1966, another storm hit the Washington, D. C, area. This time it closed all churches and all roads. This time Hilary made arrangements with the C&P Telephone Co., set up and paid for a special conference call linking himself and his family to church services being conducted in a Methodist Church in Oakton, Va. Then, Christmas, 1967, snow fell relentlessly for two days. The plows were powerless to move it from in front of Hilary's suburban home.
