Carver of Bob's Fort, who loves to be advising and managing of all men, women, and children, for their good. 'Tis he shall advise ould Matthew for my good. Now Carver thinks he lades the whole county, and ten mile round but who is it lades him, I want to know? Why, Gerald O'Blaney. And how? Why, by a spoonful of the universal panacea, flattery in the vulgar tongue, flummery.
"And a lady rich enough to have one servant would travel with more than one or not at all " Julian broke in with sudden avid interest. "Look at that deal of feminine flummery that dress of silver tissue, the ends of that silken scarf you see below the covering all those jewels and trinkets! Odd garb for travel afoot, is it not? It is a badge not to be put off even in as barren a market as this.
And a young woman, a stranger to suffering: perhaps as the creatures do looking for the usual flummery tenderness, what they call happiness; wondering at the absence of it and the shifty ghost of a husband she has got by floundering into the bog known as Marriage.
