"You know my wife died when
my only child, Amy, was but 2
years old. or course 1t was neces,

taking charge of the little one. and
my dear sister, Ella, a widow, con

girls were brought up like sisters

more fully developed and each had
some favorite study or pastime
Georgiana was fond of books and

and pedantic. Kate was as unlike
her sister as possible. She was a
perfect madcap, fond of gay amuse-

back riding and dancing.
Amy, my motherless one, was
as you are aware, beautiful, with
her large brown eyes. luXuriant
chestnut hair, fine figure and regu.
lar features. She was lively but
not so daring as Kate, fond of
books but not sufficiently so to be
