Pine Needles by Susan Warner, author of "The Wide, Wide World."
"They that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country."--Heb. 11:14.
New Edition.
Notice to the Reader of "Pine Needles."
This little book might have been entitled "Christian Heroes," for its contents would have justified the name. The stories reported in the "Missionsblatt" of the late Pastor Louis Harms of Hermannsburg, of lovely memory, will surely delight all who love either heroism or Christianity, and are not able to enjoy the narrations in their original German dress. The author has framed them in a light frame of her own, but the stories are left in their integrity and simplicity, with omission of scarcely a dozen words.
February 1, 1877.
