Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Seventh Annual Report of the Board of Directors of the Mercantile Library Association of the City of Brooklyn: Presented March 30, 1865
A sound thinker has said, that Woman is destined one day to come forth and introduce a better element into the family, society, politics, and church, and to bless us far more than the highest of men are yet aware. Out of that mine the fine gold is to be brought, which Shall sanctify the church, and save the state. Accordingly, we ask those good women who honor this Association with their names, to exercise their gentle, but powerful in?uence, even more than hitherto, upon those who are not, but ought to be, partakers with them of the benefits which it confers.
