Broad basis for public instruction urged in 1847 sketch
In a December 1847 note, A. B. argues public instruction must be placed on a broad permanent basis beyond church influence.

Our Brethren Our Sisters in the Cambridge World
In a Cambridge street a stark contrast unfolds between three ragged girls gathering scraps and a well dressed child attended by a fashionably clad companion, while a pale nurse and infant pass by, and a street boy- aristocrat surveys them. The scene asks how people of one Father belong to one human family despite wealth and fashion. The piece ends with a call to acknowledge our common bond before the Creator.
Voyage of the Princeton to Columbus Birthplace in Genoa
The Princeton, an American steamer, visited Genoa in late September with crowds watching a mystery vessel. Invitations were sent for a voyage to Columbus birthplace on October 2, weather improved, and the party toured Cogoleto. A bust for Columbus was proposed in the church, local gifts gathered, and a ceremonial salute followed by long cheers. The voyage ended with a banquet on board and praise for Captain Engle and his crew. The Genoa crowd and U.S. guests celebrated Columbus and American achievement.

The Bell Story From an Ancient Church Tale
A quiet village church sits in shade as an old bell lies fallen near the tower. A boy reads under a tree when a voice from the bell speaks of past villagers, love, and faith, recounting a bride, a cradle, a family, and the bell’s patient watch over sacred spaces.
