It was the same as Sunday at our house for nine days.

Miss Black, in consequence of the awakening, dismissed the school for two weeks, that the pupils might profit in what she told us was The Scheme of Salvation.
Caroline was among the first converts.

I observed her from the moment I was told she was under Conviction, till she experienced Religion.
She sang no more of mornings, and the making of molasses candy was suspended in the evenings.

I thought her less pleasing, and felt shy of holding ordinary conversations with her, for had she not been set apart for a mysterious work?
I perceived that when she sewed between meetings her work was worse done than ever; but grand'ther made no mention of it.
