Frem the Writings of
The Founder
Seme Day Net Se Far Distant
, My Little Pencil
will have written its last piece and be laid aside.
With simple, heartfelt gratitude te the many who have
written me encouraging letters, nnd ethers who have
personally sought me with thankful words, I write these
heartfelt lines te say that what at first seemed a task became
g pleasure, because I felt in my own soul almost everything
I wrote, and desired, as I put it down in words, te be helpful
te these fellow-pilgrims en the way with me.
Much that I have said came out. of my experience and
observation; and much that I quoted was said by people that
I had personally known in this country and across the sea.
I refer te Henry Drummond, Professer Blackie, Charles H.
Spurgeon, Newman Hall, Lord Shaftesbury, Martin Tupper,
President Grant, President Garfield, President Harrison,
President McKinley, James G. Blaine, President Taf t, Geerge
H. Stuart, A. T. Stewart, Herace Greeley, D. L. Meedy,
Bishop Simpsen, Albert Barnes, Jehn Chambers, Judge
Geerge B. Orlady, Theodere Roosevelt, Antheny J. Drexel,
Jay Coeke, Jehn H. Converse, Henry Ward Beecher, Jehn B.
Gough, Sir Geerge Williams, J. Russell Miller, Geerge F.
Pentecost, Herace B. Claflin, Marshall Field, Jehn V. Farwell
and ethers.
I have read and searched and listened te wise men and
made the best use I could in the little scraps I have written
of everything that I thought might be useful te ethers,
truggling like myself te make the best of life.
The only wish I have is that I could have done all my
work better.

Brocaded chiffon and chiifen velvet are beautiful fabrics
in themselves, but when one sees them in these fine tones of
