growing solemn. somebody must marry

an orphan. l would have married her if
she had owned all New York between

ground of the picture are two large
burning tapers on the altar of the Chapel
Royal. st. James. which were blown out
by the archbshops of Canterbury and

These candles are still preserved. and
will not be lighted again until required
for sacred ceremony. which. we trust,
will not take place until all the young so
ciety people of today are baldhcadetl and
have to wear wigs.
