Christmas offering

BY MRS. ELIZABETH DIMOND, OF BRISTOL, R. I. PROVIDENCE: PRINTED BY KNOWLES AND VOSE. 1847.


MRS. SMITH,
Providence, R. I.
Dear Friend:
You may be surprised to hear that your old friend, in her eighty-fourth year, while musing upon God’s mercy and wisdom, has brought forth this little poem on Creation; which, together with others, permit me to inscribe to you, wishing you a prolongation of the prosperity and happiness you enjoy.
I am yours, &c. ELIZABETH DIMOND.
Bristol, R. I., Dec. 18, 1847.
