The Irish Peasant, by Anonymous 62059 [Subtitle: the History of Peter Lacy and his wife Susan] [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/6/2/0/5/62059 ] [Files: 62059-0.txt; 62059-h.htm] For those wishing to know: another tract published during the 19th century by the Religious Tract Society (England). This one tells the story of Peter Lacy and his wife Susan, who don't have a happy marriage, and compares them to the Cooper family who are religious and very content. Unlike almost all of these tracts this one has an unexpected end. All the best, David, England, still blue skies and warm

Reasons for Leaving the Church of Rome, by Rev. Laurence J. Nolan 62055 [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/6/2/0/5/62055 ] [Files: 62055-0.txt; 62055-h.htm] For those wishing to know: In the early 1830's the Roman Catholic priest Rev. Laurence J. Nolan, left his charge in the Diocese of Meath, Ireland, and became a curate at Athboy, in the Church of England and Ireland. In this pamphlet he explains to his former friends why he did this, knowing it would cause him to be cast out of the community he was very much part of, and also reduce him to poverty. As might be expected it's mainly doctrinal disagreements. Four years after publishing this tract he died at Athboy (4 Decmeber 1839) from consumption, brought on by over work and poor health generally. All the best, David Sunny England, but with misty clouds

The Dying Gipsy, by Rev George Crabb 62054 [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/6/2/0/5/62054 ] [Files: 62054-0.txt; 62054-h.htm] For those wishing to know: this is a short anonymous tract, one of hundreds published by the Religious Tract Society (England) in the 19th century. Fortunately, the Hampshire Advertiser newspaper of 2 January 1847 mentions this tract in a report given by the author, the Rev. George Crabb, known at the time as "The Gipsies' Friend." It relates the death of an 80 year old gipsy called Stanley, near the town of Petersfield. All the best, David, Sunny England
