Notes

Chap. 9, "The Picture," includes the reactions of Fanny and Mary as they viewed Benjamin West’s painting, Christ Rejected by the Jews, at an exhibition hall during their vacation. The painting captures, for instance, the "wicked conduct of the Jews, who loved darkness rather than light ..." (p. 92). Juvenile fiction. A perfect copy has a frontispiece.
