Miss Priscilla Hunter, And My Daughter Susan

Miss Priscilla Hunter, and My Daughter Susan

by Pansy (Isabella Macdonald Alden)

This book presents two intertwined stories centered on themes of faith, community, and personal responsibility. In 'Miss Priscilla Hunter,' we witness a dedicated seamstress taking initiative to alleviate the financial burden on her church. Her tireless efforts highlight the importance of personal sacrifice and devotion to a higher cause. In 'My Daughter Susan,' the narrative explores the challenges and triumphs of navigating a life of temperance, demonstrating the impact of individual choices within a larger societal context. Both stories offer glimpses into the complexities of Christian life and the importance of personal commitment to ethical principles.
