But there, in that New World that lays beyend the sunset, he is happy at last—­blest in the companionship of other true prophetic ones, whose deepest strivin’s wuz, like his, to make the world better and wiser—­them who longed for deeper, fuller understandin’, and who walked the narrer streets of earth, like him, in chains and soul-hunger.

I love to think that now, onhampered by mutinous foes, or mortal weakness, they are a-sailin’ out on that broad sea of full knowledge, and comprehension, and divine sympathy.  Lit by the sunshine of infinite love, they sail on, and on, and on.

“The interest of the book is intense....  Never was such a defender of woman’s rights, never was such an exponent of woman’s wrongs!  In Samantha’s pithy, pointed, scornful utterances we have in very truth the expression of feelings common to most thoughtful women, well understood among them, but rarely finding voice except in confidential intercourses and for sympathetic ears.  Other women besides poor Cicely, and warm-hearted, clear-headed Samantha, and ‘humble’ Dorlesky eat their hearts out over the injustice of laws that they have no hand in making, and can have no hand in altering, though ruin and agony are their result....  It would be impossible to find in literature anything more pitiful than this story of the struggle of a gentle-natured woman against the dangers which surround her child,
