Richards, Laura Elizabeth Howe. Mrs. Tree’s will. [†]75c. Estes.

“The reader of Mrs. Richard’s series beginning with ‘Captain January’ will meet old acquaintances here. Mrs. Tree herself, though dead, seems more alive than anybody through her will, its effects, and the anecdotes her survivors narrate.”—Outlook.

[*] “The book is a gem in its own way.”

+Critic. 47: 579. D. ‘05. 80w.
