Henry had now been: al>dut"a! year
in his"employ. Mr. D. knew nothing
of his family; but his strict integrity,
• hir irreproachable morals, his . pleas*
lng manners, all conspired to make^ jpg after. hij| amypLpt home,
him esteem him highly. He was*" ~ w 4
proud of Henry, aud wished him to
appear in dress, as well as w, man
ners, as respectable as any one. * He
had often wondered at the scantiness
of his wardrobe;though he dressed
with die mort scrupuloiM '^wdto
to neatness, bis clothes were almest tone which evinced 1 )
thmdhmre. Mr. D. did not wish to "
think that this proceeded from a
niggardly rdispori^cpj jgindr ^ic, de
termined to broach ihe snhject, anil,
if possible, to ascertain the real cause
—this he dfffl^'the manner wu fiave
before related.
Soon after this conversation took
place, Mr. D, left home on business.
As ho waa returning, and riding
hbout.property _
is better than riches. I was only
property in tTdbargaitt’’
Filled with this project, and de*
termined, if possible, to ascertain the
the trne state of their hearts, he
entered the breakfast*room the mom-

Caroline, dropping the work she held
in her hand^’aboirt to jeav^ us,‘and

We have only to add, that the
friends of Henry were sent for, and
the nuptials solemnized at tile fp*
pointed time; and that, blessed with
