Excerpt from The Fruits of Education, or the Two Guardians

Our ancient friendship, of at least twenty years standing, does not permit me to feel uninterested in your late troubles. I have several times sat down to write to you, but our intercourse has been so long interrupted, and I felt myself so ignorant of the circumstances in which you were placed, that I hardly knew how to address you. Accident, however, has befriended me: a gentleman, who had lately seen you, was, luckily, my next neigh bour yesterday, when dining at a friend's house, and from him I heard all about you.
