"But oh, Margaret, it is very hard, just to have him put up for the sake of being put down, and pleasing the Andersons!" "Dear Ethel, why should you mind so much about the Andersons?

After threading for half an hour lanes of grass, we were received in a little village of the Banza Vivi district by Nessala, linguistere to King Luvungungwete. The guest room was furnished with every luxury; hides of a fine antelope described as the Kudu; cruets, basins, bottles, and other vases; "lustre mugs," John Andersons and Toby Philpots. A good calabash, full of
But at last the key dropped into his hands, and he felt sure that the unsophisticated girl was in his power. Among the girls that attended Humphreys's singing-school was Betsey Malcolm, the near neighbor of the Andersons. The singing-master often saw her at Mr. Anderson's, and he often wished that Julia were as easy to win as he felt Betsey to be.
He stands with the tie-rope in his hand and gives his opinion to his neighbour and the world generally 'But them there Andersons, they ain't got no notion of etikwette! It is not easy to escape from a big city. An entire continent was waiting to be traversed, and, for that reason, we lingered in New York till the city felt so homelike that it seemed wrong to leave it.
"There is a strange apathy about him," said Flora, "but I believe it is chiefly for want of exertion.
