[Footnote 12:  See her touching allusion to that suspense in the thirteenth and fourteenth verses of her poem, “Sweet Mother,” page 336.]

[Footnote 13:  These are no idle words, for, says the New York Recorder, “Her love for the missionary enterprise found expression in an act, by which she, being dead, will long speak through the living heralds of the cross.  By her will, as we learn from an authentic source, after providing for the comfortable maintenance of her aged parents and the support and education of her daughter and the other children of Dr. Judson, with a small portion to each as they reach maturity, and a few bequests to personal friends, whatever may remain of her property is given to the cause for which she wished to live, in the same spirit that her venerated husband so consistently exemplified.  She was solicitous that the children left in her guardianship should lack no good that a Christian parent could desire beyond this, and the fulfillment of filial duty, her single aim was the furtherance of His kingdom to whom her heart was supremely loyal and her life unreservedly devoted.”

It is interesting to learn, from the same authority, that the youngest of Mrs. S.B.  Judson’s five children, a boy of eight years, has been adopted by Professor Dodge, of Madison University; and her own daughter, by Miss Anable, of Philadelphia, one of the warmest friends of Mrs. E.C.  Judson.  The other children are pursuing their education under different guardians.]

Transcriber’s Notes: 

The illustration tags at the beginning are for illustrations that were near the beginning of the book in the original, but the transcriber does not know exactly where.

On page 77, the circumflex in “Shooda-gon” is a macron in the original.

On page 363, it is unclear where the quote ends in Footnote 13.
