Elsie's Widowhood Martha Finley

Excerpt from Elsie's Widowhood: A Sequel to "Elsie's Children" The public made the title and demanded the book t and the public, I am told, is autocratic. So what could I do but write the story and try to show how the love of Christ in the heart can make life happy even under sore bereavement The apostle says, I am filled with comfort, I am exceeding joyful in all our tribulation and since trouble, trial and af?iction are the lot of all in this world of sin and sorrow, what greater kindness could I do you, dear reader, than to show you where to go for relief and con solation? That this little book may teach the sweet lesson to many a tried and burdened soul, is the earnest prayer of your friend.
