AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The little work is well worthy the perusal of all individuals inclined to humanity, for certainly there is not an affliction greater to the human species than that of blindness, which this poor man is cast down, and rendered comparatively useless to society. The main object of the Author is to create a feeling of compassion in the hearts of the inhabitants of his adopted land, in oeder that a sufficient sum may be raised to defray his expenses to England, where he anticipates relief by an operation upon his eyes.'
