he remarked to his daughter, as the door
closed after their guest. Its in him, if it

"A good deal for father to say" was
Mary's inward comment, who thought her
cousin the most agreeable young man she
had ever met.

daughter paused in front of a small but
neat and pleasant looking shop, on the

Edward did not fail to accept the invita-
