He says, if you do not behave better, he shall send you back to your uncle at the west." "He never scolds you he reproves you when you do wrong, and I am sorry to say that is very often indeed. This time, in particular, I wish you to behave very well, and not do any mischief. I have done a great deal for you, and I hope you will think of it if you are tempted to do wrong during my absence. "If you are not good, Fanny Jane, I shall feel very bad when I return. "I have turned over a new leaf, and I mean to be just as good as ever I can be." "You have deceived me so often that I do not know when to trust you." "But, certain true as I live, I won't do a single thing this time," protested Fanny Jane. "You make large promises and I find when you promise most, you perform least." "Yes, I do I mean every word of it, and more too." "I am afraid you don't mean what you say," added Miss Fanny, suspiciously. "O, yes, Miss Fanny I will be ever so good I won't even look wrong," replied Fanny Jane, whose snapping black eyes even then beamed with mischief.
"Now you will be a good girl, Fanny Jane, while I am gone-won't you?" said Fanny Grant, who has several times before appeared in these stories, to Fanny Jane Grant, her namesake, who has not before been presented to our readers.
Once more, and with increased pleasure, the author tenders to his juvenile friends his thanks for their continued kindness to him and his books and he hopes his present offering will both please and benefit them. Fanny Grant's experience is tame compared with that of hundreds who suffered by this deplorable event and her adventures, in company with Ethan French, are far less romantic than many which are sufficiently attested by the principal actors in them. The terrible Indian massacre which occurred in Minnesota, in 1862, is the foundation of the latter half of the story and the incidents, so far as they have been used, were drawn from authentic sources. The story is not an illustration of the "pleasures of hope " but an attempt to show the young reader that what we most desire, in moral and spiritual, as well as worldly things, we labor the hardest to obtain-a truism adopted by the heroine in the form of the principal title of the volume, Hope and Have. Plaques are just as versatile, but are shaped like the group's mascot or symbol instead of like a traditional Greek paddle.The fifth volume of the Woodville stories contains the experience of Fanny Grant, who from a very naughty girl became a very good one, by the influence of a pure and beautiful example, exhibited to the erring child in the hour of her greatest wandering from the path of rectitude.
