Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Memorial Sketch of Elizabeth Emerson Atwater: Written for Her Friends
Yet, as we listen to the yellow, time-worn letters so sacredly preserved by Mrs. Baxter, we find that the school-girl of 1828 writes to her Dearest Janette wonderfully like the school-girl of 1878 writes to her Darling Dovie. Eliza beth emerson and Janette Harris happily went to school before the diminutive z'e had robbed of their nobility three-fourths of the noblest names of womanhood. But in genuine girl fashion elizabeth emerson laments the departure of her mother to her Dearest Janette.
