ABSTRACT
We are just on the brink of the great decision about the house. And the recollection of many weary walks has vanished in the great hope of a grand beginning; at least that rises clear and bright with lovely visions of what may open for us as the years go on; many a failure, and many a difficulty in store, no doubt, with broken and changed plans; but I hope the coming years may find us with unbroken, unchanged determination.
