*' Pray tell me, Fletcher, " asked Mrs. Dunbar, " who was that Bessie Elmore you spoke of so frequently in your last letters ? " " Bessie Elmore ! Heaven bless her ! She was the daughter of a lady who was excessively kinc to me the last time I was in London. She bore a striking resemblance to Ellen, so I called her cousin, — a pretty title to shelter a flirta- tion ; — I should inevitably have lost my heart, but for the presumption of asking her to give up her country. " « Was she very like Ell...en ? " " Excessively ; her laugh, too, always recalled Ellen's. She was a charming little creature ! " Ellen blushed slightly, and Mrs. Dunbar's hap- py countenance smiled all over as she said, " Ellen is very English in her looks. " " Yes, aunt, a ' rosy, sturdy little person, ' as English Smith used to call me. " " Not too sturdy, Ellen, " said Fletcher, " and not too little, — just as high as our hearts, moth- er, is she not ? " " She has always just filled mine, " replied the delighted mother, who had already jumped to the conclusion that the affair was as good as settled, and the wedding, and the happy years to follow, floated in rich visions before her.
