He was fond Of books and had already read most Of the volumes in his father's small, but select library Of ancient and modern classics. At the age Of ten he began to write. He kept a diary, which pleased his parents. They encouraged him in writing, because such exercisessharpened his faculty of Observation. Having cultivated this practice, everything in life and nature had for Harry interest and aspect not perceived by his youthful companions. Charlie was two years his junior and John his cousin, one year. Charlie and John were not dreamers. They had, however, exuberance Of spirits, and were always ready for a good time at home or school. They were fond Of books, too, and had read many that parents Often forbid their children: novels for instance; but these boys had happily selected the classic works of Scott, Dickens, Bulwer Lytton, Fenimore Cooper and the like, instead Of tales Of murder and nameless crimes. They had read some poetry also, but their love for the greatest Of all arts was still dormant awaiting the proper teacher to awaken it. They had just returned from school, now closed after examinations, and were anxious to know where they were to spend their vacation.
