Sunday. — Mr Tousley preached to-day. Mr Lamb is Superintendent of the Sunday School. Mr Chipman used to be. Miss Mollie Bull played the melodeon. Mr Fairchild is my teacher when he is there. He was not there to-day and Miss Mary Howell taught our class. I wish I could be as good and pretty as she is. We go to church morning and afternoon and to Sunday School, and learn seven verses every week and recite catechism and hymns to Grandmother in the evening. Grandmother knows all the questions by heart, so she lets the book lie in her lap and she asks them with her eyes shut. She likes to hear us sing:
“‘Tis religion that can give
Sweetest pleasure while we live,
‘Tis religion can supply
Solid comfort when we die.”
