Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoir of Catharine Seely: Late of Darien, Connecticut In looking over the private papers of the late Catharine Seely, whose painful pilgrimage terminated 10th month, 27th, 1838, her friends believed that a small volume might be selected from them which would be interesting to the serious reader, and to the afflicted generally, but peculiarly so to those who are lingering, as she did, year after year upon beds of pain and sorrow, with that most afflicting malady - a diseased spine. Her numerous letters, and a diary, commenced in her juvenile years and continued to the last months of her life, afford ample materials for a large work; yet, as brevity seems preferable, in many respects, to a repetition of the best sentiments, or of the continual changes incident to the complicated diseases under which she was a daily and hourly sufferer for nearly twenty years, but a very small portion has been selected for publication.
