LETTER WRITTEN BY GEORGE TOOD CHIENE TO HIS DAUGHTER DORA ON HER HONEMOON. Written from Fife - 10th August, 1876 My very dear Dora, I was glad to get you letter from Llandudno and to hear you were so happy. I firmly believed that Harry would be a considerate, kind husband, or you would not have got my consent to your marriage. I felt sure also that you would be a good wife to him, and make it your constant study to do everything to please him so that his home might be a very happy one, and that his greatest happiness would always be in his own home. I trust you may be long spared to one another, and, like your Father and Mother, after forty years of married life as happy without a single jar during all the time. Keep in mind your husband has got no fortune with you but I hope he will find he hast got a fortune in you, and, to my mind, it would require a great many thousands of pounds to compensate for a bad wife. I cannot think of anything I have to say to you. Example is better than precept, and I hope, should you ever be in any doubt of what is right for you to do, just do as you think your Mother would have done were she in your place. I, and all her children, know well that she has such a constant abiding sense of truth and propriety that nothing on earth could every induce her to swerve from acting uprightly. Like her, be economical without being in the least mean, always cheerful and temperate. A man in his business meets constantly with annoyances, so avoid, as I am sure you will do, bothering him with every little thing that ails or disturbs you. I know you will be kind and attentive to all Harry's relations, particularly his Mother. The slightest neglect of dutifulness to his Mother would pain a husband. Never neglect to read a portion of your Bible every day and pray that you may act in the way in which it enjoins all true and good women should act. That every fortune should attend you both is the prayer of your affectionate Father. G.T. Chiene. Citation details: page 94 |
