My father never kept back a cent of his earn- ings for his private uses. They all went to his mother; and when one day the family was in sore distress, he went into pitch-penny cc down to wharf* with two cents, to see what he could do. He had a dangerous run of luck, and took home his win- nings, forty cents, to his mother.
23 CAP'N CHADWICK She at first refused to touch the un- clean thing; but her children were hungry, and there was not a cent in the house to buy bread, and she suc- cumbed to
... the insistence of her boy.
It was not at all like her to do so, but with her Puritan conscience she had a wondrous heart of mother- hood.
Her own children did not exhaust its fount of kindliness. Her mother dying in 1808, she took her brother Ambrose, then seven years old, into her family, and mothered him until he reached maturity. In 1819 her sister Susannah died, her husband went to "the Far Indies," and Mother Chadwick adopted her only child, John Peach, a baby some eighteen months old. To herjie was 24 CAP'N CHADWICK as one of her own children, living with her until his marriage in 1846, and amply repaying all her early sac- rifice and care.
