Luck and Pluck. Alger Horatio Jr.

Mrs. Oakley looked angry, and for days afterwards wore an offended and injured look. She appeared to forget from what poverty and dependence Squire Oakley had delivered her, and how many favors he had lavished upon Ben, who had no claim upon him save in his relationship to her.

      Three days afterwards, Squire Oakley asked his wife for the will which she had had in her possession for nearly three years.
