Temperance and faith in a storm of words and prayer
A long historical sermon on temperance opens with a moral reflection and quotes a religious poem. It then recounts a remarkable colonial era rescue tale of Mrs Dustin and Mrs Neff, who escape Indian captivity in 1607 after defending their children and killing their master, sailing home with a boy and returning to Boston to receive rewards from the General Court and Governor.
