JOSIAH’S FIVE HOURS’ RIDE.
Samantha at the Centennial.
By the Author of
“MY OPINIONS AND BETSEY BOBBET’S,” AND “MY WAYWARD PARDNER.”
This book the writer sends forth to the world, expecting it will (as did other martyrs: John Rogers and etcetery) tread on the hot coals of public opinion; be briled on the gridiron old bigotry keeps to brile her enemies on; be scalded by the melted lead of old custom; and be burnt up on the stake of opposition; yet still, upheld by firm principle and lofty emotions, she is able to say: “I am happy in the thought.”
