About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed.

Miss Euphrosyne blushed faintly when Dick presented himself to hear judgement pronounced.

Clelia and Lydia and I are past the time when women think about such things--but Clytie--and the rest. And, you know, I can remember how Papa and Mama lived together, and sometimes it seems cruelly hard that those dear girls should lose all that happiness--I 'm sure it's the best happiness in the world.
