"While in general this story resembles Mr. Abbott's, it is superior to some of that author's later works. It is marked by his best characteristics—the easy, natural dialogue, wholesome, moral and religious tone, and simple explanatory style, without being tiresome in repetition. It describes home scenes and suggests home amusements."
