BRIEF HISTORY

OF THE

UNITED STATES

FOR SCHOOLS.

"We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us,
what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old. * * * •
For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither
did their own arm save them; but thy right hand, and thine arm,
and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favor unto
them."-Psalm xliv. 1, 3.
