“ I do not won-der that the lit-tle folks enjoy their ride so much, in such a nice car-riage, and through such a love-ly coun-try, and, above all as they are a-long with their kind ma-ma, who is point-ing out all that she thinks like-ly to a-muse them. I am sure they have been good chil-dren, or their ma-ma would not have ta-ken them with her. ”

“ In some parts of the world, where the sun is ve-ry hot, the skins of the peo-ple, in-stead of be-ing white, like ours, are quite black; these folks are call-ed ne-groes. Some wick-ed men take them from their homes, and make them slaves and ill-treat them; and ma-ny sil-ly chil-dren are a-fraid of them, be-cause they seem ugly. I am glad to see that our young friends have been taught bet-ter. They are look-ing with pi-ty at the poor black man, and the lit-tle one is giv-ing him some re-lief. They know that God made all men of all col-ours, and that we are all e-qual be-fore him. ”
