The Tin Box, and What it Contained
Alger, Horatio, Jr.
Diligence -- Juvenile fiction; Success -- Juvenile fiction; Youth -- Conduct of life -- Juvenile fiction
Five years have passed away. He is now at Yale College, but comes home
often to see his mother and Uncle Obed. He is one of the highest
scholars in his class, and Uncle Obed is proud of his success.
He is recognized as the heir of Mr. Wilkins, much to the chagrin of
Mrs. Lucinda Ross and family.
Philip is a spendthrift, and is giving his parents serious anxiety. He,
too, entered college; but was expelled the first year. It is to be
hoped he will some day turn over a new leaf.
For Harry I confidently expect a useful and honorable career, and I am
sure that all my young readers will rejoice at the prosperity which has
come to the struggling boy.
