Now that she had appeared, it was promptly paid over to her, and Mrs.Redburn, before poor and proud, was now rich, and humility never sat more gracefully on the brow of woman than on hers.
Katy and her mother had entered upon a new life, and in the midst of luxury and splendor, they could not forget the past nor cease to thank God for His past and present mercies.

Mrs.Gordon used to declare it was strange she had never thought that Mrs.Redburn might be her sister; but it was declared that stranger things than that had happened.
Katy continued to go to school with great regularity, and became an excellent scholar.

She was beloved by all her companions and Grace, who was married shortly after Katy entered the family, always regarded her with the affection of a sister, insisting that she should spend half the time at her house.

Mrs.Redburn was soon completely restored to health.

She had a fortune to manage now, and when Dr.Flynch proposed to collect her rents and take charge of her affairs, she respectfully declined the offer.
