Excerpt from A Sevenfold Trouble DO you know, dear friends, we feel like call ing your special attention in some way to this story Of ours? SO many questions have been asked during its writing, that I am sure you do not fully understand. In the first place, it is really and honestly written by seven people, and not by one person pretending to be seven different ones, as some Of you have thought. In the second place, it is an honest record of what we, who are all writers, and all very inti mate friends, have seen and heard as we looked on at the lives of certain people in Whom we are deeply interested. We used to talk about these people when we sat together after the day's work was done. They don't understand one another, said one of the ministers, else there wouldn't be much trouble.
