Excerpt from Cousin Maude She was pledged to leave the vine-wreathed cottage which Harry had built for her, and go with one Of whom She knew comparatively little. Six months before our story opens She had spent a few days with him at the house Of a mutual friend in an adjoining State, and since that time they had written to each other regularly, the cor respondence resulting at last in an engagement, which he had now come to fulfill. He had never visited her before in her own home, consequently She was wholly unacquainted with his disposition or peculiarities. He was intelligent and refined, commanding in appearance, and agreeable in man ner whenever he chose to be, and when he wrote to her of his home, which he said would be a sec ond Paradise were She its mistress, when he spoke of the little curly-headed girl who so much needed a mother's care, and when, more than all, he hinted that his was no beggar's fortune, She yielded; for Matilda Remington did not dislike the luxuries which money alone can purchase. Her own for tune was small, and as there was now no hand save 'her own to provide, she Often found it necessary to economize more than She wished to do. But Dr. Kennedy was rich, and if she married him she would escape a multitude Of annoyances, SO she made herself believe that She loved him; and when She heard, as she more than once did hear, rumors of a sad, white-faced woman to whom the grave was a welcome rest, she said the story was false.
