    “As you know, my family has always been very devoted to this university. We will keep a few pieces, but the rest we are going to donate to Goldwin. We’ll be putting some of the antiques, like the goblets, on display.”

    “What about the gold and silver?” asked Henry.
    “My cousins and I discussed what to do with it,” Mr. Chambers said. “My great-great-granduncle was quite fond of music, especially the carillon. You may have figured that out from his letters.”
    “Yes, it sounded that way,” said Jessie.
    “My family would like to use this money to add some new bells,” said Mr. Chambers.
    “What a wonderful idea,” Ezra said. “Thank you so very much.”
    “Our music will sound even more beautiful,” Andi said excitedly.
    “Your great-great-granduncle would have been proud,” Ezra said.
    “Thank you for calling me,” Mr. Chambers said to Professor Meyer. Then he turned to the Aldens. “And thank you again, for finding my family’s treasure.”
    “You’re welcome,” said Henry.
    “Anytime you need a treasure found, just call us!” said Benny with a smile. “We’re always ready for a treasure hunt.”

About the Author
    G ERTRUDE C HANDLER W ARNER discovered when she was teaching that many readers who like an exciting story could find no books that were both easy and fun to read. She decided to try to meet this need, and her first book, The Boxcar Children, quickly proved she had succeeded.
    Miss Warner drew on her own experiences to write the mystery. As a child she spent hours watching trains go by on the tracks opposite her family home. She often dreamed about what it would be like to set up housekeeping in a caboose or freight car — the situation the Alden children find themselves in.
    When Miss Warner received requests for more adventures involving Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny Alden, she began additional stories. In each, she chose a special setting and introduced unusual or eccentric characters who liked the unpredictable.
    While the mystery element is central to each of Miss Warner’s books, she never thought of them as strictly juvenile mysteries. She liked to stress the Aldens’ independence and resourcefulness and their solid New England devotion to using up and making do. The Aldens go about most of their adventures with as little adult supervision as possible — something else that delights young readers.
    Miss Warner lived in Putnam, Connecticut, until her death in 1979. During her lifetime, she received hundreds of letters from girls and boys telling her how much they liked her books.
