A dozen ruffians at a single polling-place would prevent a single woman from depositing a single vote. There can be no doubt that this means would be used by the rougher element and that the polls would become a scene of preordained riot and disorder."
As the guests sauntered back to the living-room, they made a wide detour, rather than risk crossing the space beneath the brilliant chandelier with its innocent adornment. The host, after carefully depositing the cripple in the easiest chair, smiled over to Miss Crilly. "Too bad to cause you so many unnecessary steps!" he said.

It was a ridiculous position for lovers, or even "friends" ridiculous because it had no element of danger except the ignominy of getting wet.
