economical fashion. Hewas only a remote cousin of Frederick VII., the reigning monarch, and heseemed little likely to come to the throne. But death somewhat suddenly prepared the way for him, so that wften oldFrederick died, in 1863, Christian found himself king. This, however, was but the beginning of the fortunes of this once modestand little-known household.
