Miss Walters' artistic faculty had decorated them in schemes of various colors, so that they were known respectively as The Rose, The Gold, The Green, The Brown, and The Blue Bedrooms. Lilias and Dulcie Ingleton, Gowan Barbour, and Bertha Chesters, who occupied the last-named, considered it quite the choicest of all.
'Which way will I take? asked the lad in reply. 'The Master rode the airt o' Ladiesdale, the head groom had replied, for he was somewhat of a wag. Ladiesdale for Liddesdale!
