he, being dead, will long speak through the living heralds of the
cross. By her will, as we learn from an authentic source, after
providing for the comfortable maintenance of her aged parents and the
support and education of her daughter and the other children of Dr.
Judson, with a small portion to each as they reach maturity, and a few
bequests to personal friends, whatever may remain of her property is
given to the cause for which she wished to live, in the same spirit that
her venerated husband so consistently exemplified. She was solicitous
that the children left in her guardianship should lack no good that a
Christian parent could desire beyond this, and the fulfillment of filial
duty, her single aim was the furtherance of His kingdom to whom her
heart was supremely loyal and her life unreservedly devoted."

It is interesting to learn, from the same authority, that the youngest
of Mrs. S.B. Judson's five children, a boy of eight years, has been
adopted by Professor Dodge, of Madison University; and her own daughter,
by Miss Anable, of Philadelphia, one of the warmest friends of Mrs. E.C.
Judson. The other children are pursuing their education under different
guardians.]

Transcriber's Notes:

The illustration tags at the beginning are for illustrations that were
near the beginning of the book in the original, but the transcriber
does not know exactly where.

On page 77, the circumflex in "Shooda-gon" is a macron in the original.

On page 363, it is unclear where the quote ends in Footnote 13.
