They're good as gold and some of the best housekeepers in Salem, but I dare say they'll teach her to knit stockings, and make bedquilts, and braid rag mats, and do fifty-year-old things make a regular little Puritan of her. I knew her mother quite well before she was married. Doesn't seem as if we were near of an age and went to school together. But some of the Ornes married in our line.
But the most famous one of all is the Eider Duck the one which yields such an abundance of exquisitely soft, warm down that we use it for making the best sort of bedquilts." "Can you always tell a Sea Duck from a River Duck by the feathers or how?" asked Rap.
Wimmen have always had to take time by the forelock and do the most important things first, or she never would be done with her work. Before she tackled the ironin', or dishwashin', or piecin' up bedquilts, or knittin', she has always had to dress, and nurse, and take care of the children, make them comfortable, and take care of the sick; had to, or it wouldn't be done.
I calkerlate to like her, and when they go to housekeepin' I've got a hull chest full of sheets and piller-biers and towels I'm goin' to give her, besides three or four bedquilts I pieced myself, two in herrin'-bone pattern, and one in risin' sun.
