The Chief Thing to Know About a Suitor
Bayley's Family Biblical Instructor
Genesis 24:58
And they called Rebekah, and said to her, Will you go with this man? And she said, I will go.


After Mr. Philip Henry, who came to Worthembury a stranger, had been in the country for some time, his attachment to Miss Matthews, afterwards his wife, became manifest; and it was mutual. Among the other objections urged by her friends against the connection was this, that although Mr. Henry was a gentleman and a scholar, and an excellent preacher, he was quite a stranger, and they did not even know where he came from. "True," replied Miss Matthews, "but I know where he is going, and I should like to go with him."
