First sentence: "A good old man, no matter where, whether in York or Lancashire, or on a hill or in a dale, it cannot much concern the tale; had children very much like others, compos'd of sisters and of brothers, in life he had not much to give, but his example of how to live; his luck was what his neighbors had, for some where good and some were bad; when of their father death bereft 'em, his good advice was all he left 'em."
