Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Stories for Sundays: Illustrating the Catechism
While Mrs. Sherwood lived at Cawnpore, she was so happy as to become acquainted with Henry Martyn, then chaplain at that post. We learn from her biography, lately published, that she was much in his society, and that her views of religion were greatly in?uenced by him. To this we must attribute, in large measure, the unction and feeling of her earlier writings, and their general orthodoxy. She wrote these Stories on the Catechism soon after his departure for England, in 1810. The reader will probably fancy that something of his portrait is seen in the character of the Mr. King, of the Stories.
