IN ALL REVERENCE—IN ALL GRATITUDE
TO THE FRIENDS GRANTED ME BY
THE WEST
Fayette Springs, Penn.

Thou shalt not see thy brother's ox, or his sheep, go astray.

... Thou shalt bring it unto thine own house, and it shall be with thee until thy brother seek after it, and thou shalt restore it to him again....

... And with all lost things of thy brother's which he hath lost, and thou hast found, shalt thou do likewise....

In any case thou shalt deliver him the pledge again when the sun goeth down.—Deuteronomy.

Mowitza forged ahead, her sturdy persistence suggesting a realization of her own importance
