Summary

 In this little library of spoken volumes, it is our hope to gather those works which, though written in former days, may yet speak with profit and quiet pleasure to the thoughtful listener. Here are tales of home and duty, of trial borne with patience, and of affection strengthened through sacrifice; such as may both engage the fancy and steady the heart.

If, in hearing them, any should be led to discern more clearly the beauty of steadfastness, the worth of humble service, or the comfort of a well-ordered life, the purpose of this undertaking will not have been in vain. For though times alter, the principles which guide and uphold us remain, and may still be found, as ever, in the faithful telling of a good story.Public domain
