Gems' that it is one of those books,
interesting, pleasing, and profitable, that need multiplying to
prevent youthful readers from getting an appetite for that
senseless, vicious literature now so temptingly offered to them. If
it be read as extensively as it deserves to be, by our young
people, the authoress, I am sure, will be abundantly
encouraged.'--_Rev. Joseph Wood, M.A., Secretary of the Sunday
School Union._

[Transcriber's Notes:

Contractions are inconsistently used, such as both "did'nt" and
"didn't," and have been retained as in the original in both cases.

There were many printers errors and typos in this book. The obvious
ones have been silently corrected. Others that might be cases of
old spellings have been retained.

Page 19--I suspect "of" is missing in the phrase, "that he would have
been unworthy (of) the name of a Christian" but I did not change it
in the text.

Page 120--The paragraph that begins "After the 'Hero's' death" was
originally included in the preceding blockquote, but it doesn't seem
to be part of the quoted letter, so I moved it out into the surrounding
text.]
