Brought Up in Prison

And in the prison Little Dorrit grew up. No matter through what mistakes and discouragements. through what weariness and hopelessness and how h1any secret cares, she trudged on until the time came when she took the place of the oldest of the three children in all but precedence; was the head of the fallen family and bore In her own heart it's anXieties and it's shames. e#a

Business Like Fanny

And the pleasant young Barnacie laughed heartily.
 May I ask said Lord Decimus in a stately and frigid voice, "if this MT. Dar- rit, or Dorrit, has any family?'
 Nobody else replying, the host said He has two daughters and a son, my lord"

 It was a fact that Edmund Sparkler had fallen victim to the charms of Fanny Dorrit. When her father was still in the Marshalsea and Fanny was dancing at the theatre, Edmund had seen her and had become impressed.
 His advances were met in perfectly business-like way by Fanny, who asked him if he desired to marry her Ed mund declared that his only desire in life was to make Fanny his wife.

 They had forced Dorrit to drink a lit tie and then he held out his glass fol another filling, saying slowly and in a quiet voice:

Castle Building

Fanny went back to London and was duly married to MT SparlSler. Her father went with her, leaving Frederick Dorrit and Amy with what MT. Dorrit used to call his "rather extensive establishment in Rome.
 Fanny considered that her father would be better for a little London fog and an absence from the wiles of MT. Gen eral.
 But the marriage was at length over. MT. Dorrit had settled all the business affairs he had in England and he re- turned to the great Roman palace which he had hired in the Eternal City.
 He lived at Civita Vecchia, disembarK- ing amid the dirty white houses and tn. dirtier felons, and thence scrambled to Rome through the filth of the festered way.
 But MT. Dorrit was castle building. Hc had bought in London several presents Of great price for Mrs. General
 Mir Dorrit was not expected by his peo- pie that night. He had been, but they had given him up until the next morning. So when his equipage stopped at his own gates nobody but the porter was there to receive him.

Gone Was the DOrrit Fortune

Ladies and gentlemen, the duty-ha -devolves upon me of-hum-welcom- ing you to the Marshalsea. The space is-ha-limited. The parade might be wider but you will find it apparently grow wider after a time.
 And the air is very good; it--ha-- blows over the Surrey hills-ha-the Surrey hills. My child. ladies and gen tlemen. My daughter. Born here.'
 By this time the dinner table was in confusion. They got MT. Dorrit home and the broad stairs of his palace were contracted for him to the narrow stairs of his London prison. They got him up to his room and laid him down on his bed.
 For 10 days Little Dorrit bent over his pillow, and then he passed away babbling not of green fields but of the debtors prison of the Marshalsea.
 Frederick Dorrit did not long survive his brother. And it was well-for ihat great financial genius, Mir Merdle, who had the Dorrit fortune in charge, eommi;- ted suicide in Q public bath and was found to have been a larger and thief.
