by the artifice of a teacher, recommended to a

ot her integrity, or the regularity of her former
conduct, is enticed from her governelr, and ac

EXTRACT FROM THE PREFACE
Foi the perufil of the young and thcughtlefs
of the fair lex, this Tale of Truth is d< fignrd ,
and I could wifh my fair leaders to confi ler it
as not merely effufion of fancy, but as a
leality. The circumltances on which I have
founded this Novel, were related to me fome
lilile tim- fine* by an old Lady who had p« r
f nally known Charlotte, though flie concealed
the real names of the characters, and likcwifr
the piace where the unfortunate femes were
acted—yet aa it was impotable to offer a re'a*
tion to the public in fuch an imperfedt ftate,
I have thrown over the whole a slight veil of
hdtion, and fubftnuted names and places accor
ding to my own fancy The principal charadt< r»
in this little tale ve now conflgned to the fifent
tomb—it c..n the-efore hurt the fee!ipgsofno
one—and may, I flatter myfrlf, be of fervire
to fome who are fo unfoituni»e as to have
ncithtr frien Is to advife, ror underftanfing to
diretft them, through the various and unex
pected evils that attend a young and unpiotedt
ed woman in her firft entrance into life.

CHRIS MAN READER,
Here ib pr«. tented to your view a few Ser
mons, being part of the labours of that great
man ot God, Mr. John Wclfti—one who had
more thm an ordinary me fure of the Spirit of
God given to him, evidently known to many,
who were ft. happily blefsed as to be under hi*
miniltry, and enjoy tellowftiip and communion
with him in the ordinances of the Gofpel—of
which there is an account of many extraordina
ry things in the hiftory of his life prefixed to
this book. The feiious reader will find they
are not delivered in a neat and fine drefs, to
pleafe the fine tafte of the age we now live in,
who love more to hear a fermon neatly d'tflcd
in a fine ftyle of curious learning, than to hear
an awakening fermon concerning our own per*
fomi fin-i and the fins' of the gcner.ition we live
in ; but the following are plain to the meanelt
capacity, “ not in the enticing words of man’s
wifdom, but in the demonftration of the Spirit
and of power ”
