The hero in this story is New York mer-
chant, with whom Grace Lee, the daughter of q
Boston merchant, had fallen in love, when his
name. circumstances and character were entirely
unknown to her. Notwithstanding the offers
of several admirers, Grace Lee maintains her
love for her unknown hero. Though strongly
based on love, which is the novelist's firm foun-
dation, yet the story asa whole, as its poetical
motto on the title page signifies. also truly rep
resents the force and truth of Shakespeare's
beautiful lines, which are SO often quoted
There is a divinity which shapes our ends,
Rough hew them will
This the author has exemplifed in Evan Dale.
showing how curiously Destiny works in the
affairs Of love, as well as in those of common
life, with avgor and power setting forth strongly
avital moral truth and principle This is story
evidently written with a purpose which is kept
steadily in view, amid all its varied incident and
description. The Author in the preface says:
Il have not written it to fill up the vacancy Of
an idle hour merely; far from it. If in reading
it you are inspired with one more good thought,
one more noble aspiration, i shall feel amply re-
