Excerpt from The Works of Mrs. Sherwood, Vol. 6: Being the Only Uniform Edition Ever Published in the United States Tms little tale was published before the middle of the last century, and is said to have been written by a sister of the celebrated Fielding. It is remarkable as having been one of the first books of the kind prepared purposely for children; and in this view it may, perhaps, be found not uninteresting to the present generation of children, since it not only con tains an exact and lively picture of their grandmothers and great-grandmothers, but was probably the favourite companion of their youthful days. The editor was induced to undertake the revisal of this work by a parent who is now no more. It was, indeed, one of the last tasks allotted her by that dear parent; and on this account she has been prevailed upon to complete it, although, on a close perusal, she found it necessary to make more alterations in it than she at first intended.
