Colonel Ethan Allen, leader of the Green Mountain Boys, was a notorious infidel. His wife was a pious woman, and taught her daughter the gospel. This daughter sickened, and her father was sent for to hear her dying words. "Father," she said, "I am about to die. Shall I believe the principles which you have taught me, or shall I believe what my mother has taught me?" After waiting a few moments to calm his extreme agitation, he answered, "Believe what your mother has taught you."
