Excerpt from Extracts From the Letters and Memoranda of Maria Gundry: With a Short Notice of a Beloved Elder Sister She was fond of drawing and painting, though latterly she appeared to think it wrong to devote her time to them without a definite object; yet her pen and her pencil were always ready, and often employed with much effect, to elucidate natural objects to the dear children, to draw their powers into exercise, or to furnish them with proper employment. Nor was she less ready, when these were laid aside, to join them in active games and exercise, in which she often appeared to have as much enjoyment as the youngest and merriest of the happy group with which she was surrounded; and the facility she manifested m combining instruction with amusement, greatly endeared her to her own little nephews and nieces, as well as to other children under her care.
