who lived as servant with q green-grocer. The
girl always assisted her uncle far as her means
would permit. When she learned OF his death.
which took place suddenly, she was on the point Of
marriage with journeyman baker, to whom she
had been long attached. The nnptial day was
fixed, but Suzette had not yet bought her wedding
clothes. She fastened to tell her lover that the
wedding must be deferred; she wanted the price
Of her bridal nery to lay her uncle decenfly IN the
grave. Her mistress ridiculed the idea and ex-
horted her to leave the old man to be buried By
charity. Snzette refused. The consequence was q
quarrel in which the woman lost her place and her
lover who sided with her mistress. She hastened
to the miserable garrett where her uncle had ex-

attire but nearly all the rest of her slender ward
