First edition. A collection of poetry, short stories, essays and other Christian-inflected writings, with illustrations. Brown leather with blind decoration and gilt lettering. 400 pp.; 9 x 6 in. *** Poor to fair. Top half of spine cover absent, but remainder of spine and boards are presentable, with rubbing to extremities. Front hinge going with an inch of separation at top. Spine cracked in several places but sewing still intact. Occasional stains to text and foxing to all plates. *** Mott's History of American Newspapers says Mary G. Clarke was editor of the Mother's Journal and Family Visitant, published in New York and Philadelphia, from 1836 to 1872. An entry on Rev. Clarke in an 1876 report on taxpayers of DeKalb County, Ill., provides more background: When both were in Springfield, Mass., in the late 1840s, "he purchased the Mother s Journal and committed its editorial work to his wife." They then moved to Philadelphia, Indianapolis, Chicago, and Evanston, before settling on a farm in Sandwich, Ill. An 1868 advertisement in the National Sunday School Teacher, announcing that publication of the monthly would move from New York to Chicago, called it "one of the oldest and one of the best family magazines," "always religious, but never sectarian," "made for the homes of our whole country.".
