Summary "Miss Ellis's Mission" by Mary P. Wells Smith is a biographical sketch written in the late 19th century. The work focuses on the life and contributions of Sallie Ellis, who dedicated herself to humanitarian and religious efforts despite facing significant personal challenges, including illness and deafness. The narrative likely details her commitment to the Unitarian faith and her influential role in missionary work, especially through the Post Office Mission. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Sallie Ellis, born into a well-to-do family in Cincinnati, where her early life is marked by a delicate health and a strong spiritual inclination. Following the death of her mother, she assumes greater familial responsibilities, which shapes her character and dedication to helping others. Despite her physical frailties, Miss Ellis emerges as a resilient figure, culminating in her active participation in church activities, social outreach, and eventually spearheading the Post Office Mission. The beginning sets a poignant stage for her inspiring journey, highlighting her unwavering faith and the impact of her life's work on those around her. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
