"The following tale is designed for the use of females, in the humble hope that it may influence them to bestow a portion of their time on the sick and needy, to whom advice, and more especially religious instruction, are often more valuable than silver or gold. Many of my young friends are willing to contribute money towards the relief of the poor, while they are averse to enter the abodes of misery and disease ... It is to these that the tale of Ellen Cleveland is more particularly addressed ..." Preface (pages. [iii]-iv).
