[*] Baldwin, May. Girls of St. Gabriel’s. [†]$1.25. Lippincott.
“A sprightly story of the experiences of an English girl of fourteen, who spent two years at a convent school in the north of France, on the Belgian frontier.... The heroine’s interests were varied by the neighborhood of a French uncle with a haunted château.... There are illustrations and a good deal of minor detail of the life of a French country house.”—Nation.
[*] “The tale has incident enough to make it good reading for any girl under eighteen.”
