“A little, meek-faced, quiet village child
Sat singing by her cottage door at eve
A low sweet Sabbath song.”
DAFFODIL thinks this poem must be identical with “Voices at the
Throne,” for which A. MARTIN inquires. It is to be found in _The
Children’s Harp; or, Select Poetry for the Young_, Frederick Warne &
Co., Bedford Street, Strand.
M. D. JORDAN kindly informs “WINTON” that the verse for which she
inquires is in a hymn by Bishop Bickersteth, beginning—
“Come ye yourselves apart and rest awhile.”
It is No. 597 _Hymnal Companion_, new edition.
IRENE PETERKIN wishes to obtain a monologue called “Mr. Gutteridge’s
Great-Grandmother.” Can any reader help her?

believe some preparations of petroleum are good for the hair, but she
must not set herself alight.)

correspond and exchange with other collectors. She will send a written
list of her duplicates to anyone who would like to exchange with her.
