The first thing to be done was of course the inditing of a most affectionate epistle to his nephew. "Nephew," said he, "you know the confidence which I have always placed in you and all that I have put in your hands, and I know how much you are to me, and how earnestly you work in my service, and so, if I could have you at the same time in several places, it would be a great relief to me.

When she reached the house, she went straight up in haste to her own bedroom.
