Updated: May 10, 2025

Kitty Grant had laughed that morning when Laura had told her that she was to go to Esther's at four o'clock and leave at six, that she might be in time for her own dinner hour, had laughed and said, "Oh, a regular 'four-to-six, a sunset tea! The little Bodn is 'up' on 'sassiety' matters, isn't she? Dear me, I wish I could go with you, I never went to a sunset tea. Couldn't you take me along?"
