In their letter, doubtless, the dog motive
is introduced that is so finely developed presently by Mrs. Newton.
I should like to have been able to give the theme as enounced by the

writes:--
"MY DEAR GIRLS,--Your Aunt receiv your Letter your Aunt will Be
vary glad to see you as it quite a greeable if it tis to you and
Shee is Quite Willing to Eair the beds and the Rooms if you Like
