Excerpt from The Land of Inner Light: An Essay in Prose and Verse, Being a Brief Treatise on Advanced Thought in Its Application to Modern Life As some of the other poems contain ¿ashes of the higher knowledge or serve to point a moral, they also should prove valuable reading. The one designated as The Slave of the Mill, especially, is a composition having a most lofty object in view, namely, to impress upon the minds of the public the existence of the great curse of child labor and the importance of eradi cating this widespread public evil, or, at least ameliorating, as much as possible, the condi tions under which it is carried on. It is grati fying to note that many efforts at reform in this matter have already been successfully accom plished, and that more will follow. In regard to the poems that remain, the author hopes that they will be found, at least, interesting and attractive.
