His mother read the Bible to her family every day, and on the Sabbath, much of the time was spent in this way. While he lived in Kentucky, it is said, he never saw even the exterior of what was properly a church edifice. But he attended a school taught in the neighborhood, for a short time ; and with such further assistance as he received at home, was able to read well at the age of seven. Summing up all the clays of his actual attendance on school instruc- tion, it is estimated the amount woul...d hardly exceeed one year. The first book he read, after the Spelling-book, was his mother's Bible. We can easily imagine what an avidity there must have been in the mind of such a child for the narratives and parables of this blessed book, in the seclusion of his wilderness home. Two years later, the death of his mother doubtless served to impress still more deeply on his mind the pious lessons he had received from her lips, and had learned from the book she had loved so well. The second book he read was Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, bor- rowed for him, by his father, at a settlement eighteen miles distant from his home.
