At another place where they stopped for mid-day luncheon Cooper writes: "We asked for a fruit-tart, and odors and nosegays! they gave us one made of onions, which they thought very good fruit in its way, and we ate exactly as much as we wished."
He opened the cupboard where the flour was kept, gave her a cupful, and added a few ounces of butter to the piece he had already cut off. "I shall want wood for the oven," said the implacable Nanon. "Well, take what you want," he answered sadly; "but in that case you must make us a fruit-tart, and you'll cook the whole dinner in the oven. In that way you won't need two fires."
Had he lunched, and if so, upon what? Entirely upon fruit-tart and cream. What a man! What a digestion! Am I expected to say anything more? I believe not. I believe I have reached the limits assigned to me. The shocking circumstances which happened at a later period did not, I am thankful to say, happen in my presence.
