The scowl on Mrs. Livingstone's face darkened visibly, while her husband, thinking it time to speak, said, "It is my wish, mother, that you keep away from the kitchen. It does the negroes no good to be meddled with, and besides that, when you are hungry the servants will take you something."
I thought I saw a chance for one man to arbitrate a little difficulty and arbitration is pretty highly recommended in these days by good authorities.
