Excerpt from The Life and Letters of Hugh Miller, Vol. 2 of 2 Many as are the happy circumstances which we have noted in Hugh Miller's life, it is to be re membered that, at the age of thirty-two, he still finds himself a stone-mason; and that he is ardently attached to a lady, whom he has inflexibly re solved not to marry while he continues to earn his bread by the labor of his hands. The scheme of emigration to America, almost insuperable as were his objections to it, begins to be again entertained. "My mother," says Mrs. Miller, "had at length agreed, if nothing suitable turned up, to give us three hundred pounds of mine, of which she had the life-interest; and with this sum we were to face the great wilderness."
