Will you walk, or shall I call a cab?" "I will walk," I answered, scarcely knowing what reply was expected. As we turned the corner of the street I ventured to ask: "Is it to some school you are guiding me?" "Ah, Mees," said he, rubbing his hands together and laughing, "it is some great secret. Mons. Bristeed would surprise you. Have a leetle patience, and all will be divulged."
My very good friend Monsieur Bristeed has not apprised the young lady of his bounty. I have his commission to purchase for her this establishment, which he is aware you desire to dispose of, Madame. His recommendation of the young lady is surely sufficient." "The whole establishment?" I asked, with an effort at composure. "Yes," replied Madame.
Having presented the epistle to him, he perused it hastily, then taking my hand with great eagerness, he exclaimed: "O Mees! I am greatly honored. Mons. Bristeed is my very good friend; I well acquaint with him in Paris. I congratulate you on having one so grand a gentleman for your acquaintance. He tell me you look for a school."
Madame consents to transfer this mansion into your hands, She accepts our recommendation and that of your own intelligent countenance. Mons. Bristeed was not mistaken in the impression you would make. I wish you joy in having become the proprietress of this splendid institution." "How," I cried in astonishment; "I proprietor? I do not understand. Please explain."
