This article presents information on the book "Miss Billy's Decision," by Eleanor H. Porter. This book is a continuation of the history of "Miss Billy," who in an earlier story made havoc in the house of three bachelor brothers, when she came to live with them as her dead father's friends. Now she has grown up, has been engaged to one brother much too old for her, and is engaged to another of the three, an artist. Her fears that his nature is one to care for her chiefly as a girl to be painted, his fears that she has her music more at heart than she has him, lead to a misunderstanding made more serious because there is a beautiful other girl whose portrait is to be painted, and a rising tenor who sings duets with Billy.
