Excerpt from Sedgemoor: Or Home Lessons

Herbert, you will find plenty of time to get acquainted with each other; come here now, and let us all get acquainted."

The wilful and charming little Alice Clayton seated herself by Miss Emily Donne, and beckoned to her brother and their cousin Arthur Eastbrook to occupy the sofa near her. Arthur and Maude were almost strangers at Sedgemoor, where Alice had lived all her short bright life of ten years. They were cousins of the young people, wards of Mr. Clayton; and, for the future, established at Sedgemoor with Mr. Clayton's young friend Carey for a tutor to the boys, and Maude's good friend and former teacher, the elegant and accomplished Emily Donne as governess.

The gloom which had enveloped the world for Mr. Clayton, since the death of his fair young wife in Alice's babyhood, was fast disappearing in the genial circle which now met in the library at nightfall. He had a keener zest in his enjoyment of Herbert's fine spirit, and Alice's pretty ways, now that both were much more frequently called forth by companionship with others of like tastes and pursuits.

The two gentlemen obeyed Alice's summons to the library, with some deliberation. Mr. Clayton had been telling Mr. Carey what course he had pursued with his son; and with how much reluctance he had admitted the necessity of intrusting him to other hands and heads than his own.
