Excerpt from A Woman's Life-Work: Labors and Experiences of Laura S. Haviland The ready sales of the two editions of the unpretending book entitled, "A Woman's Life Work, " during the two years past, induces the author to venture a third edition, with earnest prayer that the youth may be encouraged, the middle-aged strengthened, and the aged invigorated in working together with God, in rescuing the perishing by the perusal of these simple recitals of trials and victories, that have been neither few nor far between. Yet these checkered paths are for all earnest workers for God and humanity, but with the eye of faith we see the ready hand that uplifted doubting Peter when dashing waves caused that beloved disciple to cry for help. Sustaining grace was found while standing by my dying son Joseph B. Haviland, of Traverse City. When the brittle thread of life was broken I cried in my distress: "Oh, Lord! why, oh, why must this dear one be taken in the prime of life from his devoted family? and here am I, past threescore years and ten, to be left. But thou knowest all, and doest all things well. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
