Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of Mrs. Sherwood, Vol. 2: Being the Only Uniform Edition Ever Published in the United States I must not forget to say, that Mr. Fairchild had a school for poor boys in the next village, and Mrs. Fair child one for girls. I do not mean that they taught the children entirely themselves, but they paid a master and mistress to teach them; and they used to take a walk two or three times a week to see the children and to give rewards to those who had behaved well. When Lucy and Emily and Henry were obedient, their papa and mamma were so kind as to let them go with them to see the schools; and then they always contrived to have some little things ready to carry with them, as presents to the good children. Mr. And Mrs. Fairchild had been brought to the know ledge of God in the early part of their lives. It is the greatest blessing which we can possibly re. Ceive, to be made to know our God, and to be made acquainted with all that he has done for our salvation. It is the work of the Spirit to bring us to this knowledge; and they who are thus enlightened, have new hearts given them, and are entirely changed, - insomuch, that they may be called new creatures: and the way by which we may know those whose hearts are changed through the power of the Spirit, is, that they love God above all things, and seek the everlasting good of their friends on earth with a degree of earnestness which makes them despise all other things in comparison. So it was with Mr. And Mrs. Fairchild; they did not wish their dear little children to be handsome, or rich, or powerful in the world; all that they desired for them was the blessing of God; without which, all that this world can give is nothing worth.
