for. I have made my own living for
seven or eight years. Now I am going
with a young man whom / love very
dearly. We have been keeping COM

he comes to see me. He takes me
everywhere I want to go. He is very
fond of my little girl and she of him.

and mother and sister seem to thin

or marry him. They want me to
marry some one with money.
We are engaged. If we marry
intend to keep working for awhile at
least, to help him get start in life.
Do you think I ought to give him up
and marry some one l don't c7re for
just because he has money? I can't
do that. Not that mother doesn't
want me to be happy, but she hates
