The Anaheim Gazette of recent date, in
speaking of the beautiful surroundings OF
Orangethrope, pays the following compli-
ment to the little daughters of its inmates,
Mr.. and Mrs. A. McGregor. These inter-
esting children were born in Diamond and
are we'll known to our people: MIR. Nc
Gregor has two little girls, aged 4 and 6
respectively. The older girl. who is named
Jessie, is quite u prodigy. She reads very
nicely in McGuffey's Fourth Reader, pro
nouncing correctly and %articulating clearly
and distinctly. Although so young, she
reads with much expression, giving words
their proper emphasis and infection. She
spells as we'll as she reads, and has consider
able knowledge of geography and aritl'me-
tic. She also writes a very fair hand. Bear
in mind that this little girl is but SIX years
of age. The younger girl, whose name is
Sadie, reads very we'll in McGutfey's Third
Reader, and spells very accurately. This
perhaps sounds incredible, but we have
heard with our ears, and seen with our
own eyes, and know what we state to be a
fact. Neither of these little girls have eyer
attended a public school, but have received
instruction at home. When the tender
years and attachments of these youthful
scholars are duly considered, no one will
err in pronouncing them very extraordinary
