Alice asked, in some astonishment, and her mother replied evasively: "He was kind and affectionate, while she loved him with all a woman's devotion. I was but sixteen when I became a bride, and several years elapsed ere God blessed me with a child.
"I recognised you from your photograph," said the host. "D'you remember the wedding group? You were a groomsman when Jack and Milly were married, weren't you?" "I was," replied the Indiarubber Man. "I performed a number of menial offices that day. But were you there? I don't seem to remember you." Joe shook his head. "No, I had mumps. Wasn't it rot? It must have been an awful good rag.
The stateliness and show were all reserved for Madison Square. Mr. Armstrong pronounced the solemn words, in the shaded summer parlor, with the door open into the sweeter and stiller shade without.
