LOUIS PHILIPPE IN EXILE.
When n Poor Duke He Wanted to
Marry an American Girl. Sat
Her Father Objecte,s.

merchant prince was great man in
cid Philadelphia-a far greater man
than the master of little school, even
though it were the most select in the
city-even though the teacher were an
exiled French gentleman of royal blood,
duke of Orleans then, King Louis
Philippe in after years.
The story of how the princely school
master courted the charming Abigail,
daughter of Thomas Willing, is re-
lated with new detail in a recent num-
Der of the Ladies' Home Journal.
Dressed in his best, and probably, not
withstanding that he was modest and
sensible young man, little in fear of an
unfavorable response, the exiled prince
called on the American merchant and
asked him for his daughter. There was,
perhaps, more pride than humility in
lie answer he received:
''Sir, should you ever be restored tc
your hereditary position, you will be
too great a match for my daughter; if
rot, she is too great match for YOU"
So the poor schoolmaster went away
disappointed, and, although only his
position" and the lady's appear to have
been considered by the hard-hearted
parent, it is probable that if Mistress
Abigail had not agreed with his opinion
she would have made her influence felt.
AS it was, Louis Philippe married
Princess Marie Amelie. daughter of the
k;nr of E1uleS while hirai1 WILLING Of
Philadelphia, who might have been
queen Of France, became plain Mrs.
Richard Peters.
