of relief. Il can't think how Gwen puts

on and prosper, Blount, my boy"
The aspiring young lawyer carried
out his intention and presented himself
to his uncle few minutes before seven

flower in his buttonhole and a smile
upon his lips. Altogether a handsome,

"Oh, ah, I only wanted your opinion.

curious, but this morning l saw note
