Orphan Rachel, or Fruits of Perseverance: Embellished with Cuts (Classic Reprint) by Unknown Author (Paperback / softback, 2015)

Excerpt from Orphan Rachel, or Fruits of Perseverance: Embellished With Cuts The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the kwledge of the Holy One is understanding. - Proverbs, ix 10, Rachel Maitland was sitting beside her blind grandfather, knitting warm woollen stockings for his use, against the ensuing winter; a book lay open before her, from which she was endeavoring to acquire the French language without the assistance of a master. Now, some of my readers may feel a little incredulous respecting the possibility of this double employment; but knitting forms one of the easiest amusements of the blind consequently those who enjoy the blessings of sight, can knit and read at the same time with the greatest facility, if they possess any skill in that useful art.
