The Adopted Daughter: A Tale for Young Persons (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Adopted Daughter: A Tale for Young Persons

The following tale is intended to shew what people ought to be, rather than what they are; as there are few, possessing Mrs. Meridith's fortune, who have an inclination to dispose of it in the manner she is represented to have done. Indeed, the characters here introduced are too near perfection to be met with in real life, yet the Author hopes that her young readers will receive instruction, as well as amusement, in perusing it.
