Excerpt from The Boatman's Daughter: A Narrative for the Learned and Unlearned
Tun earnple and unobtrusive events re ferred to in the following pages occurred more than twenty years ago; and were it not that the truths illustrated by those events are of everlasting interest and obli gation, it might be needful to offer some apology to the public f or detailing them at the present date. Various causes have tended to keep the rough notes latent in the hands of the original possessor until recently, when it appeared to the writer, that the lessons they suggest would be eminently adapted to the present age; and might appeal not only to the profane and poor, but to the polite and professedly re ligious. Intellectual eminence, taste, high genius, are not here exhibited; but mat ters which, though unattractive to many.
