These will form a splendid collection, and some of them have already been sent to England, and placed in the collection at the East India House. It was doubly delightful to us, who had just previously examined the originals, to look over the portfolios of this talented draftsman.
"I was between thirteen and fourteen, and wore short dresses, and my hair was plaited. My father was on duty at the Philadelphia Navy-Yard, and we lived in that city. There was a young man who used to come to bring messages to father; I think he was a clerk or a draftsman. I do not remember his name, except that his first name was Rupert, and father always called him by that.
Of course, many of these patterns could be copied by a good draftsman only, but others are simple enough for anyone to attempt. For instance, I decorated a room in soft cream, gray, yellow and cornflower blue. The chintz had a cornflower design that repeated all these colors.

Raymond Bonheur hadn't much will this controversy proved that the child mastered, and the father, who really was an accomplished draftsman, began giving daily lessons to the girl. Soon they worked together in the Louvre, copying pictures. It was a queer thing to teach a girl art there were no women artists then.
But the back looked like Hallock's; I'm afraid it was Hallock's." "But why should he weaken at the last moment and try to stop the train?" queried Dawson. "You forget that it was the special, and not the passenger, that was to be wrecked." "Sure," said the draftsman.
