Without letting them know who she is, she writes each a letter, stating that a lady of means has provided for their education at Mrs. Summers' seminary. Edith receives the announcement with joy. May, the other niece, who lives in another part of the country, is delighted with the news. Immediately she demands of her mother a lot of new things to satisfy her vanity and desire to make a great impression. May, with her new clothes and outfit, attracts considerable attention when she arrives at the school. Edith, in her modest wardrobe and old-fashioned carpetbag, is received with disparaging remarks. The two girls graduate with creditable showing in their studies. After the graduating exercises, Mrs. Summers calls the two girls into her private office and tells them that she is their aunt, and she has chosen Edith as her heir in recognition of her kindness and thoughtfulness for others, particularly for her poor mother.
