They had an unfeigned horror of * boarding," Any friond of {hoirs ever compolled to stay in a” bonrding . house was suro of an oxtra portion of theircom- ‘misoration and kympathy.

Not #o theso women poots. I havo heard Alico tell how shio papored ona room with her own hauds, and Phwbo how she paint- od tho dogrs, framad the %anurnu, aud “brighte onod up” thinge gonerally, Thus from tho first they Liad o bome, and, by tho vory mag- notlem that mado it bright, chcory, In trath & home, they drow around thom frionds who wero their frionds no less till thoy breathed their lust sigh, Ono.of theso was Mr, Groeloy. Ho always chorighod for those slstors three the re- bpect and affection which overy truo man in- stinctively focls for tho truo womon who have tholir boing within tho circlo of his lifo, In their friendship one religious faith, kindred purauits, mutual frionds, snd long association strengthonod and comented the fraternal bond 1o the last.
