Excerpt from A Few Thoughts for a Few Friends
In presenting this collection of Mrs. Crawford's writings to her friends, in accordance with oft repeated kindly re quests, we have, as nearly as possible, carried out her own plan though at. The time of her leaving us for 'the better life,' it was scarcely more than a thought, and only spoken of to us, her mother and her husband, as something that might be wrought out in the future, if she was restored to health and permitted to pen other thoughts which, with a selection from these, might form a volume more pleasing to her friends, and more satisfactory to herself.
Many of the poems were written in quite early life, and, owing to long continued and painful illness which preceded her home-going, were never revised, as they would have been had our dear one's life been spared a little longer.
