Excerpt from The Dairyman's Daughter: An Authentic NarrativeIn this state the dairyman lived for the space of seventy years; when his eldest son was awakened to a sense of the value of his soul and the importance of real religion: he also became exceedingly anxious respecting his parents, whom he warned to ﬂee from the wrath to come. One day, as they were going to church, the son began to converse with his aged parent, and spoke of the importance of a chango of heart: Hold your tongue, said the Old man, we are good enough: we go to church on Sundays, we pay every one his own, we do nobody any harm what more can be required? So great was his con fidence of his own safety at this time.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Forgotten Books

<p>One of the 19th century's most well-read stories for girls. Over three (3) million copies sold before 1900. Read this once and you'll wonder why you never heard this story before. Told by her pastor, Legh Richmond, it's the story of young Elizabeth Wallbridge, who came to be known as 'The Dairyman's Daughter.' A child of a poor dairy farmer in England, Richmond met Elizabeth in 1798 upon his arrival as the new minister on the Isle of Wight. He learned from her of a proud past in which she forsook all love of her family, but then of the sweet love of Christ which was formed in her and the shining testimony she became as a witness for Him with her holy life. Richmond regarded Elizabeth as 'one of the best-versed persons in the Scriptures' whom he had ever met and considered meeting her one of the highest privileges of his life.</p>

Grace and Truth Books

Two 19th century stories of lasting value, combined for the first time in one volume. Each tells of the work of the grace of God in the lives of young men. One, born into royalty (The Black Prince) comes to know and love Christ. The other, living in slavery (The Negro Servant) comes to know the same Savior. But what different plans God has for each of their lives! Holding the power of royalty will not prevent God from humbling us, if He wills, nor will being enslaved hinder Him from exalting us, if that is His plan. The first story, The Negro Servant, was written by Legh Richmond early in the 1800s. This pastor's warmth and tenderness toward his people comes through loud and clear as he touchingly conveys this beautiful conversion story which he witnessed in his own town. In times of great prejudice, this story was a warm demonstration that Christ welcomes all peoples to Himself. The second story, The Black Prince, shows how life often does not turn out as expected for those who commit their lives to serve the Lord. Even for those in positions of great power, God still rules and has His own plans for each of us. This volume also contains a brief concluding story, The Troubles of Life, about how those who rely on the Lord have secret resources to draw on, in times of difficulty, that self-sufficient men of the world can never possess. The book concludes with 'Patient Joe', a touching poem about a man with confidence that God worked all things together for good even when events crossed his hopes and expectations.
