Conclusion.

~
9,

(eit fs this little book is far from being a love
(iyeaSX story, it might very properly end without
283 a marriage. N othing has been said about
Carl’s courtship, but it is nevertheless true
{"~y that his wedding-day has arrived, and that

he is about to be married to Matilda
Mill. If intelligence, education, and piety can fit
a young lady to be the ornament and blessing of a
household, Miss Mill was so fitted. It was universally
pleasing to all concerned, and to none more so than to
Charlotte and Ursula, who loved Matilda at first sight,

and found it hard to keep down some worldly pride as

       
 

they looked around on the prospects of their once des-
pondent brother.

There was not a boy in the school, nor a servant in
the establishment, who did not fleel a glow of pleasure
at the happiness of Carl Adler, They knew that he
was soon to be principal of the academy, as Mr. Barry
had accepted a more prominent situation in New York.
