Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Tales, Sketches and Poems: A Memorial Volume This collection of Stories, Sketches and Verses by my late beloved wife, is a memorial of my undying affection for her, and an expression of the inconsolable sorrow I suffer in her loss. I present it to relatives and a few friends, to whom I know it will be acceptable, and by whom it will be prized as the reminder of a good and gentle woman, whom they all loved with a warmth of affection, upon which no cloud ever threw its shadow. If it should be read by anyone who never knew my dear Carrie, it may help to show that literary occupation is quite compatible with a perfect discharge of the domestic duties. For she was a true and constant wife and a devoted mother, and she fulfilled all the social obligations with an exemplary conscientiousness and a continual cheerfulness, that won the hearts of all who knew her. Her death, at an age when her intellectual qualities were only beginning to mature, deepens the regrets that are felt at her decease. To all of us she is a most tender memory; and although the pleasure of reading this book will be saddened by the recollection that I have lost her who wrote it, it will now and then serve to put me in mind of her as I knew her in the sunshine of that life, upon whose brightness the night of death came all too soon.
