See my poor Mary about it, at all hazards."*^ As he glanced round his mother^s luxurious boudoir, with its blue satin and silver hangings, its Aubusson carpet of pale green studded with beautiful bouquets, its marble busts and alabaster vases, and tiny tables glittering with a crowd of handsome and elegant trifles, and thought of Mary^s gloomy home, hi...s heart felt sick and sore ; he sighed deeply, and entering the lofty and stately conservatory, lit his cigar, and threw himself on a sofa, to think &ver his plans for the future.
