THE

LOST INHERITANCE.

A NOVEL.

Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul.

In the world's broad field of battle,
In the bivouac of Life,

Be not like dumb, driven cattle!

Be a hero in the strife!

LONGFELLOW.

IN THREE VOLUMES.
