Abstract

"Little Löie then set up as a temperance lecturer, and her first attempt brought her in a profit of twenty dollars. Her little lectures were, of course, taken out of books an newspapers, and committed to memory, but delivered with such elocutionary effect and earnestness, that she was soon in great demand all over the state, and known as the 'Western Temperance Prodigy.' Only eleven years of age! yet earning her own living, and doing good work - at least doing what she was able and that which was nearest her hand."
