I said to Mother, I remember, at the time I took that plunge: "I hope to goodness you're not going to pitch that defenceless child into any such bear garden!" and she replied that to make a bear-garden you first had to have bears, and she didn't suppose the co-educative young men could be so described. "Well then," said I, "would you rather I should call them donkeys, or even monkeys?
We should just meet it rounding a corner as with the rush of an automobile a chariot of fire that would stop but long enough to take us in, when we should know it immediately for the vehicle of our fate. That conviction had somehow been with us, and I had really heard our hour begin to strike on Peg's coming back to us from her co-educative adventure so preposterously "engaged."
There's indeed one thing, I'll do her the justice to say, as to which she has a glimmer of vision as to which she had it a couple of years ago; I was thoroughly with her in her deprecation of the idea that Peggy should be sent, to crown her culture, to that horrid co-educative college from which the poor child returned the other day so preposterously engaged to be married; and, if she had only been a little more actively with me we might perhaps between us have done something about it.
