Straightening Out Mrs. Perkins

This true narrative has its setting in New England. Two neighbours are discussing with amusement the "queer" religious practices of Widow Perkins, who was passing by.

When one of the two neighbours decided to "straighten out" the widow she runs into some disconcerting experiences, for Mrs. Perkins seems able to outwit her at every turn.

The lively and natural dialog of this book is sprinkled with many Bible references pointing out some very obvious and pertinent conclusions.
