The man took her into his store and
told her to select herself some better
clothes. and that no would give them

After she had got her new clothes
the man led her to certain part Of

put her new clothes on.
After she had dressed herself she
looked beautiful, and the man asked
her IL she would live at his home with
HIS little girl. She accepted his in
