XI IN CHURCH In church I generally pushed by my mother in order to sit at the "head of the pew." Adjoining ours a maiden lady sat, old to me, but not much over forty. She brought sprigs of dill and fennel seeds, one or two of which she invariably passed over to me. The nibbling of these spicy seeds would while away the dreary hour of the sermon, before I was old enough to take an interest in the discourse. If she had not the fennel that delightful old lady would unroll a corner of her big, red handkerchief, and disclose two or three red peppermints which she fed to me, one at a time, with long intervals between. She took snuff, tapping a shell box which I thought exceedingly pretty. Once I reached my hand over the separating partition and she allowed me to gratify my unspoken wish. I took a pretty fair pinch which made me sneeze terribly, upsetting mother's and Miss Ely's gravity for several minutes. For a few Sundays after that, I was denied my favorite seat. The choir was located in a gallery at the back of the church. When they sang, the congregation arose, turned around, faced the choir, and leaned comfortably against the backs of the front pews. After a time, it was suggested that it was treating the minister with disrespect to turn our backs upon him, and it was determined to stand facing front. Well I remember what a stir this innovation against a long-established custom made, and how, for many Sundays, the congregation was divided, some turning to face the choir, others facing the minister. And after the custom to face forward became well established, one man, noted for his independence of thought and action, continued to turn towards the choir and sing a heavy bass, while everyone looked on with mingled amusement and...

Book excerpt: "We think it is not too much to say that this is the best volume of brief biographies of the past year. It contains short yet very graphic and informing life-sketches of seven eminent daughters of New England - seven of those fine, true lives that morally, even more than mentally, enriched civilization. Here we have an outline picture of the immense and civilization-wide work for humanity wrought by that noble, practicable and indefatigable toiler for humanity, Dorothea Lynde Dix - that angel of light to the insane of the world. And here is the story of that other moral heroine, Lydia Maria Child, who dared and did so much for the freedom of the black man, and whose broad thought contributed in no small degree to the more tolerant, charitable and reason-cultivating attitude of the American mind....Each life was victorious in the high sense of the word, because, from childhood till the evening shadows fell, the character in every instance gradually and splendidly unfolded into noble and still nobler proportions....Mr. Beach has succeeded in a far greater degree than most biographers in revealing the soul or the true personality of his subjects by faithful study of the life, the letters and utterances, and by seizing only those things that are germane to the life in hand. He has told his stories entertainingly and in such a manner as to bring the reader into the most intimate and sympathetic relations with his subjects. This is a rare gift which transforms biography from a dull, dry, and often profitless form of literature into something at once absorbingly interesting and of the highest possible value to the human mind. No one can read these lives without being renewed in spirit, and for young women we know of no works so instinct with spiritual virility or so potential for good as the 'Daughters of the Puritans.'" -The Arena "Characterized by a real interest of subject matter and a pleasantly unconventional manner of treatment....Catehine Maria Sedgwick, Mary Lowell Ware, Lydia Maria Child, Dorothea Lynde Dix, Margaret Fuller, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Louisa M. Alcott are the particular women about whom Mr. Beach has chosen to write. Of nearly every one of them an authoritative biography or memoir of some sort has been written, and one purpose of these essays is to call attention to the more elaborate studies and to stimulate interest in them. One of the interesting disclosures of these sketches, which are studies of personality rather than more formal and studied biography, is the picture of the early nineteenth century which they incidentally convey. Life was very simple in those far-off days, and literature, too, was simple and unsophisticated; but neither life nor literature ever lacked serious inspiration." -The Dial "Reminiscences of the emergence of these daughters of the Puritans from the Calvinism of their ancestors, and other notices of the literary and humanitarian movements in which they engaged, add a distinct historical interest to these biographies. The thoughtful reader instinctively feels that New England owes much of her greatness to the nobility of her women." -The Outlook "The delightful style of the author makes the reading of these biographical sketches a source of pleasure and profit." -Christian Register CONTENTS CATHARINE MARIA SEDGWICK (1789-1867) MARY LOVELL WARE (1798-1849) LYDIA MARIA CHILD (1802-1880) DOROTHEA LYNDE DIX (1802-1887) SARAH MARGARET FULLER OSSOLI (1810-1850) HARRIET BEECHER STOWE (1811-1896) LOUISA MAY ALCOTT (1832-1888)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Powerful preacher, political negotiator for New England in the halls of Parliament, president of Harvard, father of Cotton Mather, Increase Mather was the epitome of the American Puritan. He was the most important spokesman of his generation for Congregationalism and became the last American Puritan of consequence as the seventeenth century ended. The story begins in 1639 when Mather was born in the Massachusetts village of Dorchester. He left home for Harvard College when he was twelve and at twenty-two began to stir the city of Boston from the pulpit of North Church. He had written four books by the time he was thirty-two. Certain he was God's chosen instrument and New England God's chosen people, he disciplined mind and spirit in service to them both. Tempted to "Atheisme" and unbelief, afflicted early by nightmares and melancholy, then by hope and joy, he was a pioneer in recognizing the excitement of the new sciences and sought to reconcile them to theology. This well-wrought biography, the first of Increase Mather in forty years, draws on the extensive Mather diaries, which were transcribed by Michael Hall.
