woman in Vermont married poor but worthy
man against her fathers wish. He drove them
from his house, ard closed his door and heart
against them. They came down near Bos on,
went to worik, and prospered. After many years
the father had occasion TO come to Boston. lie
concluded to 20 and sec his daughter, expecting
q Geld reception. His daughter and her husband
received him most kindly and lovingly. After
staying with them awhile, he went back to Yer
munt
| One of his neighbors, hearing where he had
been, asked him how his daughter and her hus
band had treated HIM.

not child nor man on earth, who would not
feel and say that that daughter, though so deep

did right in treating him as she did. That father
was her enemy, bu. she was not his. He hated
her, while she loved him.
