The Landreths and Annis meet Aunt Wealthy in Philadelphia on their way home from the Oaks and complete their journey with her at their side. Mildred and Zillah, her sister, welcome daughters into their homes and learn much about raising children. Don and Rupert, Mildred's brothers, heed the call to "Go West, young man!" When they are attacked by Indians, the Keith family mourns their likely loss but rejoices in the knowledge that if they are dead they are in a far better place with the Lord.

The Elsie Dinsmore Novels, Martha Finley, in our opinion is the author of the best Series of novels that we have seen in our forty-three years of reviewing. Written by Martha Finley, an unmarried teacher of the last century, these novels proved to be a means of conveying her deep love for Christ Jesus. She loved her Lord, she loved His Word, and this love was passed on to His sheep through the writing of by far the best and most Biblical novels you will ever read or see. Altogether there are 28 of these novels, all built around Elsie Dinsmore, her immediate family, her extended family, and her neighbors.
