Hide and Seek

CHAPTER VI
5/24

He is not only willing but anxious--if you give the child into his charge--that you should have access to her whenever you like.

He will always acknowledge your prior right to her affection and her duty.

He will offer her every facility in his power for constantly corresponding with you; and if the life she leads in his house be, even in the slightest respect, distasteful to her, he pledges himself to give her up to you again--if you and she desire it--at any sacrifice of his own wishes and his own feelings.
