RECOMMENDATORY REMARKS.

ВАТН,

July 7th, 1863.

My dear Sir,

"I think your work displays considerable talent, and, with the divine blessing, will be useful."

Yours very truly,

OCTAVIUS WINSLOW.

"PRECIOUS TRUTHS;

OR,

HAPPY THOUGHTS FOR LIFE'S JOURNEY.”

THIS is a charming book; it is as full of interest and goodness as the writer is full of light and benevolence. Every page is elegant, and every line rich with Gospel truths; the author has displayed fineness and pungency of thought, and liveliness of imagination, in his graphic illustrations; a deep tone of spirituality and earnestness runs throughout the whole work. His lines of poetry and music are very sweet and beautiful; the volume, on the whole, is a gem, and as interesting, and as much adapted for a prize book, birthday, or a present for any occasion to the young, as any book I ever read.

RECOMMENDATORY REMARKS.

"HOW TO BE HAPPY."

BY HENRY JENNINGS.

XV

THE author of this little volume is the son of the Rev. GEORGE JENNINGS, for many years the laborious and much-respected Minister of the Gospel, at Tadley, Hants.

Without professing to have read every line in this book, I have made myself sufficiently acquainted with its contents to give my testimony to the soundness of the Gospel Truths contained in it, the profound interest which the facts recorded in it are adapted to awaken, and the tendency of the whole to promote the design which the title of the book indicates, especially

amongst the young.

DEAR SIR,

8, ARUNDEL SQUARE, LONDON,

3rd September, 1863.

The subject on which you write is most important, and seems handled in a style which will secure attention, and I trust, profit the reader.

I am, dear Sir,

Yours faithfully,

W. MORLEY PUNSHON.
