Lord and Lady Stanton lived to a good old age. Lewis caused them a good deal of uneasiness for a time by running rather wild, and absolutely refusing to marry in his father's life-time. I believe my lord would have been very glad if his son had married his ward when he wished it—not that I ever wanted him. However, Lewis did take a wife at last, and that a wife of the Religion—a pretty, gentle, scared little Provençal—who I fear he will not keep very long. Theo and her husband have had little trouble except that she has no children. She is a blessing to every one who comes in contact with her, as Mrs. Barnard is the reverse. Margaret hath at this moment twenty children and grandchildren, and is as proud of the last as if it had been the first. Rosamond divides her time among us, happy and making happy wherever she goes. And now I bring this long memoir of my young days to a close. I have written it at the instance of my husband and for the benefit of my children, in accordance with a kind of custom which hath obtained in our family for several generations. As to the moral, if any be needed, it may be read in two or three places of Holy Scripture, which I will copy here. "A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways."—St. James 1:8. "If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him."—1 St. John 2:15. "Ye cannot serve God and mammon."—St. Matt. 6:24. AGNES GENEVIEVE CORBET née d'ANTIN.
