Author Description

Excerpt from The Alchemist But you know, mamma, you have often said that Caroline, even when she was as young as I am, never gave you any trouble; for she had always so good and amiable a disposition, that it seemed only natural to her to do what was right. I have so; and on that account I do not despair of seeing you some time possess even greater merit than Caroline herself.
