For nearly an hour we had been going through these villages crowded with soldiers kindly French soldiers who were clearly living happily with the people upon whom they were billeted. Then Henry burst forth, "My good Heavens, man what if this were in Wichita or Emporia! What if your house and mine had ten or twenty fine soldiers in it, and we were away and our wives and daughters were there alone?
Me being that fatigued I rushed right up to the Sherman House, but there wasn't a room vacant on the top floor, so I knew I would not feel at home there, so I go capering over to the Annex. "Gee, but that Chicago is a bum town, and yet in Emporia they look upon it as a Mecca of pleasure. The only pleasure I ever got there was trying to analyze the smells from the stock yards.
Ain't you afraid of catching cold taking so much money out of your clothes all at once?" "What was that you handed out? Come again, please." "I merely remarked that it was awful kind of you." "Oh, that's all right; I always was careless with my money." "I always like this place; it reminds me so much of the back of the drug store in Emporia." "Then you are from the West, Miss De Vear."
Say, what are you going to do with that book? Trying to dope out whether you can buy another drink, I suppose." "No. I'm just keeping track of the girls I met whose fathers are mayors of towns.

"Yes, I put on my light ones some two weeks ago. I got jerry that there would be some class to the humidity, so I made the quick change. "I cannot decide yet what to do for the summer. I don't know whether to go down to Bath Beach and take a cottage, go to the mountains or go back to Emporia for a trip.
We were used to Broadway; Michigan Avenue did not make us shy, and Henry had been in the South. But these clothes and the hats and the eyes all full dress were too many for us. And we fell to speculating upon exactly what would happen on Main Street and Commercial Street in Wichita and Emporia if the Duchess could sail down there in full regalia.
To the above summary the writer will add the following list of the earlier Territorial and State meetings: In 1860, Big Springs; in 1861, Prairie City; in 1862, Emporia; in 1863, Ottawa; in 1864, Tecumseh; in 1865, Prairie City; in 1866, Ottawa; in 1867, Olathe. To the above statistics we will append the following reflections: 1.
As the passenger list began to resolve itself into familiar faces and figures and friends we became gradually aware of a pair of eyes a pair of snappy black, female, French eyes. Speaking broadly and allowing for certain Emporia and Wichita exceptions, eyes were no treat to us. Yet we fell to talking blithely of those eyes.
