her mother several very pertinent questions when
they were alone. AS Where does liesthcote Mount

brother. the proper heirs. 1t would he more
right even, II person were to have It all, that
Anne should be the person. She,' said Rose with
little fervor. would be sure To take care OF mo.
Il think so too Rosie said her mother: bot
than Anne will not always Just be Anne. She Will
marry somebody, sud she will not have a will of
Ter own-at least not sneh a will OF her own.
