Comfort to the afflicted; or, The wonderous works of God shewn to the widow and fatherless. : Shewing, how one Mary Blake, in the Parish of Struton, in the county of Kent, was left with four children, and being reduced to great poverty applied to the parish, but obtain'd no relief. How the poor widow went home to the children, bidding them pray to God for bread, and locking herself up in a room, was going to murder herself.

How she was wonderfully delivered out of her miserable condition, and the churchwarden dead in his bed, his head dashed in pieces and his blood sparkled on several parts of the wall.
