Now, Frank, if you will be kind enough to help me upstairs with my trunk." The trunk was carried up between them, and placed in a closet.
"I will send for a variety of articles from the city to make my room look social and cheerful," said Mr.Morton.

"I have some books and engravings in Boston, which I think will contribute to make it so." A day or two later, two large boxes arrived, one containing pictures, the other books.

Of the latter there were perhaps a hundred and fifty, choice and well selected.
Frank looked at them with avidity.
"You shall be welcome to use them as freely as you like," said the owner--an offer which Frank gratefully accepted.
The engravings were tastefully framed in black walnut.

One represented one of Raphael's Madonnas.

Another was a fine photograph, representing a palace in Venice.
