Excerpt from Memoirs of Frederick Perthes, Vol. 2: Or Literary, Religious, and Political Life in Germany, From 1789 to 1843 Although neither the political commotions, nor the mani fold religious and ecclesiastical controversies of the time ever became uninteresting to Caroline, or failed to draw forth her sympathies, they never again engrossed her whole soul as in 1813. Her heart was in her home, and there she ever found fresh cause of joy and gratitude. Her eldest daughter, Agnes, had been betrothed, since the summer of 1813, to William Perthes, who had formerly taken part in the busi ness at Hamburgh, afterwards campaigned as a volunteer, and now managed the business which he had inherited from his father in Gotha, and which, under his auspices, had he come very flourishing. God has again showered down joy and gladness upon us, wrote Caroline about this time how can I thank Him enough for so manifestly protecting us and our children! It is certainly a great happiness to be able to commit so pure and innocent a child to the man whom we have so long esteemed, knowing that he will cleave to her with his whole heart, loving and cherishing her as long as he lives.
