A Forest Hearth by Charles Major is a romance between a boy and a wretched young girl with an emotionally abusive mother. Excerpt: «A strenuous sense of justice is the most disturbing of all virtues, and those persons in whom it predominates are usually as disagreeable as they are good. Anyone who assumes the high plane of „justice to all, and confusion to sinners,“ may easily gain a reputation for goodness simply by doing nothing bad. Look wise and heavenward, frown severely but regretfully upon others' faults, and the world will whisper, „Ah, how good he is!“ And you will be good—as the sinless, prickly pear.»
