It is a testament to the resilience and determination of the human spirit, and a reminder that even in the face of adversity, there is always hope for a better future.But the figure in the coffin, embedded in such voluptuous materiality at so late a date, she who had followed the plow and pitched hay, struck me as remarkable. Her hair was thick and coarse, but smoothly plaited and laid -- red hair. The large, bony head, with the wide mouth and small nose, looked tired indeed. But one strong arm held snugly the minute infant that had never known life pressed close to her breast and big yearning face.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
