It is a busy, talking world. -ROWE. "I think I shall enjoy the fortnight we are to spend here, papa; it seems such a very pleasant place," Elsie remarked, in a tone of great satisfaction. "I am glad you are pleased with it, daughter," returned Mr. Dinsmore, opening the morning paper, which John had just brought up. They-Mr. Dinsmore and Elsie, Rose and Edward Allison-were occupying very comfortable quarters in a large hotel at one of our fashionable watering-places. A bedroom for each, and a private parlor for the joint use of the party, had been secured in advance, and late the night before they had arrived and taken possession. It was now early in the morning, Elsie and her papa were in his room, which was in the second story and opened upon a veranda, shaded by tall trees, and overlooking a large grassy yard at the side of the building. Beyond were green fields, woods, and hills. "Papa," said Elsie, gazing longingly upon them, as she stood by the open window, "can't we take a walk?" "When Miss Rose is ready to go with us." "May I run to her door and ask if she is?-and if she isn't, may I wait for her out here on the veranda?" "Yes."
Elsie Dinsmore grows up and becomes a young woman. She spends a summer with her aunt, where she experiences the joy of first love and the deep pain of betrayal.

Elsie's experiences changes from girlhood to womanhood, her family is also undergoing change. In this third volume Elsie matures into a young woman as her father falls in love, marries, and provides her with a brother and sister: Horace Jr. and Rosebud. Elsie experiences a bittersweet agony in her first love and her first heartbreak, only to discover that true love has been with her almost as long as she can remember.
The Elsie Dinsmore Novels, Martha Finley, in our opinion is the author of the best Series of novels that we have seen in our forty-three years of reviewing. Written by Martha Finley, an unmarried teacher of the last century, these novels proved to be a means of conveying her deep love for Christ Jesus. She loved her Lord, she loved His Word, and this love was passed on to His sheep through the writing of by far the best and most Biblical novels you will ever read or see. Altogether there are 28 of these novels, all built around Elsie Dinsmore, her immediate family, her extended family, and her neighbors.
Mr. Horace Dinsmore was quite remarkable for his conversational powers, and Rose, who hadalways heretofore found him a most entertaining companion, wondered greatly at his silence on thisparticular evening. She waited in vain for him to start some topic of conversation, but as he did notseem disposed to do so, she at length made the attempt herself, and tried one subject after another.Finding, however, that she was answered only in monosyllables, she too grew silent andembarrassed, and heartily wished for the relief of Elsie's presence.She had proposed summoning the child to accompany them as usual, but Mr. Dinsmore replied thatshe had already had sufficient exercise, and he would prefer having her remain at home.They had walked some distance, and coming to a rustic seat where they had often rested, they satdown. The moon was shining softly down upon them, and all nature seemed hushed and still. Forsome moments neither of them spoke, but at length Mr. Dinsmore broke the silence."Miss Allison," he said, in his deep, rich tones, "I would like to tell you a story, if you will do me thefavor to listen."13It would have been quite impossible for Rose to tell why her heart beat so fast at this verycommonplace remark, but so it was; and she could scarcely steady her voice to reply, "I always findyour stories interesting, Mr. Dinsmore."He began at once."Somewhere between ten and eleven years ago, a wild, reckless boy of seventeen, very much spoiledby the indulgence of a fond, doting father, who loved and petted him as the only son of his departedmother, was spending a few months in one of our large Southern cities, where he met, and soon felldesperately in love with, a beautiful orphan heiress, some two years his junior."The boy was of too ardent a temperament, and too madly in love, to brook for a moment thethought of waiting until parents and guardians should consider them of suitable age to marry, inaddition to which he had good reason to fear that his father, with whom family pride was a rulingpassion, would entirely refuse his consent upon learning that the father of the young lady had begunlife as a poor, uneducated boy, and worked his way up to wealth and position by dint of hard laborand incessant application to business.
