Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Noble Words and Noble Deeds "Does not the human heart become softened by hearing of instances of gentleness and consideration?" - Plutarck. Six old schoolfellows, who had been separated for a long time by the changes and chances of the world, having happily met again, resolved that they should meet at one or another´s houses once a week. These pleasant gatherings had taken place for some time when I was admitted to them on the plea of relationship to one of the members. I found their numbers included one clergyman, who had been born to a large fortune and a good name, and who had made the most liberal use of his money; a half-pay officer of some rank; an artist; a learned man; an historian, who has added much by his writing to the choice collection of the French Academy; and lastly an old workman, whose industry had raised him to the position of an independent gentleman.
