"Oh, I have some news," said a pretty brunette named Leonie as she leaned over her cushion to crimp some rose petals.

Madame Lerat had to display severity over the muffled laughter.
As to the furniture, the chairs, sofas and divans, they are one and all stuffed with women's hair, both blonde and brunette, sent to the author of La Grenadiere by a number of women of thirty who did not hesitate a minute to despoil themselves of their most beautiful adornment, a sacrifice all the more rare since they have passed the age at which the hair would grow again!"
'What an excellent idea! cried Maude, with one of her little bursts of enthusiasm. 'Now that is really splendid, Mrs. Beecher. 'My friends always call me Nellie, said the little brunette. 'How nice of you to say so! I should love to call you so, if you don't mind. It is such a pretty name too. Only you must call me Maude. 'You look like a Maude, said Mrs. Beecher.
The Reverend Mr. Turell was specially ingenious. Of him Dr. Holmes wrote, "You've heard, no doubt, of Parson Turell; Over at Medford he used to dwell, Married one of the Mathers' folks."

The Van must have been crossed out of her blood, for she was an out-and-out brunette, with hair and eyes black enough for a Mohawk's daughter.

Notice that beautifully gowned, superbly handsome brunette who is getting out of a hansom at Martin's Restaurant. She had a yataghan in her flat she brought from Paris with her, and she caught it up one night and drove it into her lover's neck, and was acquitted on the ground that it was done in self-defense. Do you want more detailed biographies, or is your acquaintance sufficiently extended?
This fact, adds the convent annalist, inspired great confidence in the efficacy of the water which we had just collected from the tomb with religious veneration. A child of nine years of age, named Mary Adela Brunette, who had always been remarkable for delicate health, was seized on the evening of December 31, 1853, with pain in the eyes so violent as to deprive her of sleep.
The German had taken the horse by the bit, and I stepped out from behind the school house. Great heavens, but she was a beautiful woman, and she sat on her horse like a statue. I had never seen a more beautiful woman. She was a brunette, with large black eyes, and her face was flushed with the exercise of riding.
There is nothing in their appearance to suggest the gentle relationship. One is tall, dark, and dark-haired, of that golden-brown complexion usually styled brunette. Her nose is slightly aquiline, and her eye of the oblique Indian form. Other features present an Indian character, of that type observable in the nation of the Chicasaws the former lords of this great forest.
