Item description from seller

With a compelling inscription written by Sarah Ann Draper in 1831. The ffep is a long tribute to her "Ever dear teacher", with her grateful remembrance of the many delightful hours the author has spent in school, and numbers them among her happiest of her existence. "I may well call those hours happy which are spent in school when the cares of life are not permitted to intrude; but when the mind is receiving new and enlarged ideas and is traversing the regions of science with uninterrupted adorned delight." With a penmanship scrap that includes the name Lyman Draper, which leads us to think that this is Sarah Anne Draper, b. 20 Feb 1821 in Pelham MA, dau. of Lyman and Sally Draper; m. John Holmes 23 Nov 1853, Ware MA; d. 31 Mar 1904, Amherst MA. Although the penmanship and structure of her writing seems beyond a 10 year old. 4to, 50pp, publisher's quarter cloth and printed yellow boards. Text browned, one page with a long tear, boards marked and corners rubbed, spine rubbed but holding. Twentieth Edition; Corrected, Enlarged, and Improved by the Author.…
