And so it happened, on a bright October morning, when there came a frost that cut from Maine to Missouri, that a sudden fancy took me to use my new Billinghurst on something larger than squirrels.
She had come up to Paris by an early train she had been staying at Versailles, of all places in the world. She had been a week in Paris on her return from Cannes her stay there had been of nearly a month: fancy! and then had gone out to Versailles to see Mrs. Billinghurst. Perhaps they'd remember her, poor Dallow's sister.
Billinghurst, Mrs. Ruth B. Hipple of Pierre, Miss Bird for the State Franchise League and Mrs. Simmons of Faulkton; the State president, Mrs. Ruby Jackson of Ipswich, and Miss Rose Bower of Rapid City for the W. C. T. U.

Such are Billinghurst, Warminghurst, Itchingfield, and Ardingley.
She was staying there to teach her daughters French she had a dozen or two! and Julia had spent three days with her. She was to return to England about the twenty-fifth. It would make seven weeks she must have been away from town a rare thing for her; she usually stuck to it so in summer. "Three days with Mrs. Billinghurst how very good-natured of her!"
