MEG'S FRIEND.
By Alice Corkran. With 6 full-page Illustrations by Robert Fowler. Crown 8vo, cloth extra, $1·25.
Meg, a child of unknown parentage, has been brought up by a woman who abuses the trust. She is removed to a ladies' school, passes successfully through the many troubles incident to so complete a change, and is ultimately taken into the house of a mysterious benefactor, who proves to be her grandfather. Her fine nature at length breaks down his coldness and apparent aversion to her; and after long separation she once more meets the friend of her neglected childhood.
"Another of Miss Corkran's charming books for girls, narrated in that simple and picturesque style which marks the authoress as one of the first amongst writers for young people."—The Spectator.
