Letters from Palestine is a collection of letters within religious context by Rev. J. D. Paxton. Excerpt: “Great is the power of association. From my childhood, I have been taught to read the book of God, and prize its precious truths; and I bless God, and thank my dear and beloved parents, more for this, the religious instruction they gave me, and their prayers, than for all other benefits received through them; and they have not been few.”
