The Old Revolutionary Soldier #251667

Mr. Foster was very aged, and very poor. He lived in a log hut in a very lonely place. His children were either dead, or had left him to seek their fortunes in distant places, and his wife was nearly as Old, and more infirm than he was. When he was able to work, he made brooms and baskets. From the sale of these, and a small allowance from the overseers of the poor, were derived his means of living.10 the old revolutionary soldier.
