But Jenny fancied that Carleton's good-night kiss was a little colder than usual, am! she cried herself to- sleep that night, ' I don't care ! I don!t care ! 1 she repeated to hcroelf. 'I will not be weighed .down by a whole tribe of relations. No on& has any right to ask it of me:! I'll hnvc an up· and-tlowu quarrel with Carleton before I will submit!' But with the morrow came sober reflec· tion. Jenny sat herself down to think, in the quiet before-breakfast hour, wherein she \.\'as \\'Ont to read in the big green-mor occo Bible, and kneel beside her bed in prayer. 'Carleton's mother,' she said to herself, ' Ca~·leton 'a eister, and bis dolitnry old-muiU aunts !
