I thought I was looking into heaven, Rosalie dear, in between the bars of the golden gates; and I saw all the people dressed in white walking up and down the streets of the city. And then somebody seemed to call them together, and they all went in one direction, and there was a beautiful sound of singing and joy, as if they had heard some good news. One of them passed close to the gate where I was standing, Rosalie, and he looked so happy and glad, as he was hastening on to join the others. So I called him, darling, and asked him what was going on.
A touching story of a young girls faith in the not so glamorous world of entertainment.
A wonderful memory

This is a very beautiful victorian story. I think it could be called a classic. It is triumph over adversity. Written in a style that no longer exists.
This is one of the best books I have ever read.
