It would of course not be judicious for your daughters to associate with Miss Hart.

But you, Mrs.Bertram, you, as a mother, might get at this poor child's past, and counsel her as to her future." "She has gone away, has she not ?" asked Mrs.Bertram.
"I regret to say she has, but she may return.

She promised me faithfully to come to church on Sunday, and I called at the lodge on my way up to leave her a little basket of fruit and flowers, and to remind her of her promise.

Mrs.Tester said she had left her, but might return again.

I hope so, and that I may be the means of helping her, for the poor child's face disturbs me." "I trust your wish may never be realized," murmured Mrs.Bertram, under her breath.
