CONCLUSION.
My new mother's name was Violet La Grange, and she was very much
pleased with me, and showed me all round the house. Every one else
seemed pleased with me too, especially Lily, her younger sister, who
patted the dog, and called him a "real good dog," and many other names.
The place where I now live is called "La Grange Place," and is a most
beautiful mansion-house, with parks, and everything else befitting such
a splendid place. My new mother made me dresses, and got me a little
house, in which I can live. I think I never shall have any other mamma,
for she told her little sister that she should have me when she is
herself too old to play with me. I have formed an acquaintance with
another doll, who lives a little way from here. Her name is "Maria
Poppet," and her mother is Lucy Ashbourne, the most intimate friend of
my mother. For Maria I entertain a most lively friendship, and when
our mammas are playing round, we relate to each other our adventures.
Maria's adventures you may read in a volume entitled "The London Doll."
I now close,--hoping that my readers will find as much pleasure in
reading my adventures as they have had in reading Maria's.
