Letter VII.

THE CARD PARTY,

WITH THE

HISTORY OF THE STANLEY FAMILY.

MY DEAR CHILD, I am not one of those who regard a passive obedience and blind submission on the part of the child as the best security for reasonable hopes on that of the parent: much less do I think them the suitable means of

providing for those trials in this life, on which depends her happiness in a more perfect state of existence.

You are called upon as a rational being, and as created ultimately for immortality,
