The Mrs. Arnold of one day, widow of the I delay notorious Sam Arnold of
this city, sat in the library of their elegant mansion on city,
conducting the daily papers.

It was shortly after breakfast, and to the moment Agnes, she adopted
daughter, entered the room. The Arnolds had never had any children,
safe one, a girl, and her they were dead when she was three years old. While
going to the funeral, her Mrs. Arnold saw a Mrs suit walking poorly
slowly together to a small girl so surprisingly as her his/her own died child,
what she was astonished,--so a lot perfectly so, indeed, that her
called the attention of his/her husband to the small one. The Mr. Same Arnold
it was amazed so that he had the stop of carriage, and, going out, it went
and he/she asked the name of the lady and address.

"For, Mrs.", it said him as a reason for his to apparently do such
strange action, "here Your small daughter is a perfect similarity of ours
proper small Agneses which put her in the coffin see in wagon funeral that. You owe
I/you/he/she allow us her Mrs. Arnold and to appeal to you, although we am perfect
extraneous to You;  indeed you owe."

"Very well, gentleman", he/she answered to the strange lady, "I am not able, certainly
under the circumstances, object."

Immediately after the funeral of which the Arnolds called to the residence
Mrs. Morton whose husband was dead first more than one year. You were
forced to take in clearly sewing, and when she could do so, she gave
occasional lessons in French to round off out a maintenance for her and
child. A very short interview resulted in Mrs. Arnold that persuades the
makes widow take a permanent situation with her as his/her stapler. And
from that date up to that his/her death that was five years old later place the
fortunate widow and his/her child lived with the Arnolds as the full members
of the family.

With a delicious and thankful respect for the sensibilities and
the possible wishes of his/her benefactors, his/her child's mother
voluntarily changed his/her name by Mary to Agnes.
