Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Althea Vernon, or the Embroidered Handkerchief: To Which Is Added, Henrietta Harrison, or the Blue Cotton Umbrella
Ah! Exclaimed Althea, who was a very young girl, I should have known this handker chief to be Miss Fitzgerald's, even without the name she has had so delicately marked in the centre. I wonder at her carelessness in leaving so valuable a thing behind her. I was with her at Stewart's the other day when she was looking at some that were just Opened; and she took six at fifty, and four at eighty dollars a-piece. Do you not recollect, mamma, I told you as soon as I came home?
