She gave me a course of History first, and after that Physical Philosophy; but never recommended me to Moral Science.

When I had been with her a few months, she proposed that I should study the common branches; my standing in the school was such that I went down into the primary classes without shame, and I must say that I was the dullest scholar in them.

We also had a drawing master and a music-teacher.

The latter was an amiable woman, with theatrical manners.

She was a Mrs.Lane; but no Mr.Lane had ever been seen in Rosville.
