This little work needs nothing from us to recommend it to attention. In its incidents it presents more that is keenly interesting, both to the natural and to the spiritual feelings than it would have been easy to combine in the boldest fiction. And then it is not fiction. The manner in which the story is told leaves realities unencumbered to produce their own impression. It might gratify the imagination and even aid in enlarging our practical views to consider such scenes as possible and to fancy in what spirit a Christian might meet them but it extends our experience and invigorates our faith to know that having actually taken place it is thus that they have been met.
