Description
Begun as a series of conversational sketches, the story outran both the original intention and the limits of the periodical in which it was commenced; and, such as it has become, it is here presented to those who have already made acquaintance with the May family, and may be willing to see more of them. It would beg to be considered merely as what it calls itself, a Family Chronicle a domestic record of home events, large and small, during those years of early life when the character is chiefly formed, and as an endeavor to trace the effects of those aspirations which are a part of every youthful nature. That the young should take one hint, to think whether their hopes and upward breathings are truly upwards, and founded in lowliness, may be called the moral of the tale.
