THE LOST HEIRESS.
BY MRS. EMMA D. E. N. SOUTHWORTH.
Read the Brief Extracts from Lengthy Opinions given by the Press.
"It presents some of the most noble and beautiful models of virtue, in
private and in public life, that ever came to us through a similar medium.
It must have a moral, religious, and elevating tendency."--_Godey's Lady's
Book._
"Its pages can be read, and re-read with renewed pleasure. The
characters stand out in bold relief. The incidents are well told, and
the interest never flags for a moment. It is a book not to be
forgotten."--_Evening Bulletin._
"Maud Hunter, the heroine, is a beautiful creation, whose history will
be perused with intense interest, and moistened eyes, by every
sympathetic reader. The moral tone is pure and healthy, breathing the
spirit of true religion."--_Boston Transcript._
"Its chasteness of morals, and its exalted role of virtue pervades every
page. We would desire it to become a parlor table-book in every
family."--_N. Y. Sunday Times._
"It will sustain the already enviable reputation of the author. The
character of Maud is as near perfection as anything human could be. A
deep and thrilling interest pervades the whole work."--_N. Y. Spirit of
the Times._
"We have perused it with care and an unanticipated pleasure. The author
displays skill and power. The plot is very well laid. The moral is
good."--_Boston Congregationalist._
"This work is written with much ability. We have perused the whole of
it, and been greatly edified. It is far superior to, and more brilliant
than _The Lamplighter_."--_Daily Orleanian, N. O._
"It is a beautifully written, and absorbingly interesting work,
which no one can commence without following it eagerly to the
conclusion."--_Reading Gazette and Democrat._
"It shows great ability, a vivid imagination, and descriptive powers of
a very high order. It will be read with avidity."--_Saturday Evening
Mail._
