One other thing I noted. There was a loose nail in the lock of the trunk.
On Tuesday I made my début; and never was man more agreeably surprised than myself when, after making my bow, I for the first time took a rapid survey of the aspect of the house: the parquette and dress-boxes were almost exclusively filled by ladies, coiffées with the taste which distinguishes Frenchwomen in every country, and which becomes peculiarly striking here, where are to be seen the finest heads of dark hair in the world; many wore bonnets of the latest Parisian fashion, and all were more dressed than it is usual to be at theatres in America.
On the whole during those latter years she improved, and in the general reformation of her character she raised the standard of her reading.

She hardly knew how to express it to herself, unless it was that he had become more Arab. Always "très-mâle," as Frenchwomen pronounced him admiringly, Si Maïeddine began to seem masculine in an untamed, tigerish way.
