The Silver Keys
Original preface to The Silver Keys as written by A. L. O. E.:
“Such readers of this little work as may have seen Ned Franks and Sheer Off will perceive at once that the present story is a continuation of them, though not necessarily to be united with either, as each is complete in itself. The same individual who is represented in the first volume of the series as a godless termagant, and in the second as a drunkard hardly rescued from the vortex in which she was sinking into destruction, appears in this, the third, as a penitent and a believer.
She now struggles through trials and sore temptations, on a heavenward path. Such instances of the triumphs of grace over a corrupt nature and evil habits are – thank God! – to be met with in life. Some who will be, we believe, welcome and honoured guests in the courts of heaven, will be gathered from those who were once great wanderers on earth, and who will be ready to own that they were unworthy even of the portion of the dogs – the crumbs under the Master’s table.” — Charlotte Maria Tucker

Pride and His Prisoners (A. L. O. E.)
$21.50Pride is an imprisoning sin. In this excellent story, Pride is personified as a demon which holds most of the inhabitants of an English parish in captivity and forces them to do his bidding. The lives of the characters demonstrate pride in one way or another, and finally results in a near-catastrophe during a hot-air balloon ride! A convicting story with a powerful point for us all!
But not all is lost, for the prisoners of Pride are at last released from his bondage and relationships are restored. Written originally in 1869, the story is timeless as, in every era, we all need a good dose of humility!
A. L. O. E. was the pen name for prolific British writer Charlotte Maria Tucker, which stood for “A Lady of England.”
