The Life and Death of Tom Careless, by Anonymous 62161 [Subtitle: to which is added, The History of Will Worthy & Nancy Wilmot] [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/6/2/1/6/62161 ] [Files: 62161-0.txt; 62161-h.htm] For those wishing to know: this is a chap book, not from a religious series, which sold in the early part of the 19th century in England. It tells, in verse, two (fictional) tales where people take no religious thought and come to a terrible end. The story of Nancy Wilmont, who sinfully DANCED on her wedding night and so was struck dead, will be a lesson to many(!) All the best, David, England, growing cool and the skies light gray
