The Pilot's Daughter: an account of Elizabeth Cullingham

A parish clergyman records the modest, devout life of a local woman admired for steady piety and charity. Raised by religious parents—her father a ship pilot whose prayerful discipline and dramatic deliverance marked the family, and her mother a zealous, compassionate nurse—she acquires deep personal faith, practices regular prayer and church attendance, tends household labors, and nurses her mother through prolonged illness. The memoir describes ordinary temptations, seasons of health and sickness, and close sibling unity despite denominational difference, presenting a portrait of unostentatious Christian virtue lived within everyday responsibilities.
