The melancholy end of ungrateful children : Exemplified in the dreadful fate of the son and daughter of a wealthy farmer, who, after receiving and dividing the wealth of their parents, refused them, in their old age, the shelter of their roof, or a morsel of bread. With a account of the wonderful scenes the daughter beheld in her trance. Printed for the benefit of the rising generation, at the particular request of all who were eye-witnesses to the scene. [Four lines of verse].
