Helen of the Glen : A Tale of the Scotch Covenanters (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Helen of the Glen: A Tale of the Scotch Covenanters

His farewell with his wife had been short and hurried. He advised her to return with her little ones, Helen and William, the former of whom was then four, and the latter two years old, to her native place recommended them to their Father in heaven; and the last words which Mrs. Thomson's ear caught from that voice which she was to hear no more, were these: O my dear Agnes, teach these little ones to know and remember their Crea tor ia the days of their youth, that if I see you and them no more in this valley of tears, I may meet you and them at last by the river of life, in the paradise of God.
