"Every person we met stared at us; we were such a grotesque looking couple.
Works of fiction superseded by interesting company and conversation, and made obsolete by the human mind outgrowing the childishness that delights in the tales told by grownup children such as novelists and their like! An end to the silly confusion, under the one name of Art, of the tomfoolery and make-believe of our play-hours with the higher methods of teaching men to know themselves!
She represented well-to-do grownup people, and them alone. The humour of servants, the sallies of children, the machinations of villains, the tricks of rascals, are not on her canvas; but she differentiated among equals with a firm hand, and with a constant ripple of amusement.

The town clergy looked askance at him. And the Diocesan Bishop was not well disposed towards him.
"Do you ever go to Primes at six o'clock in the morning, Cousin Peligros?" "No," was the grave answer. "Such things are not expected of ladies." "How thoughtful of Heaven!" exclaimed Juanita, with a light laugh. "Then I do not mind being grownup and putting up my hair if you will lend me two hairpins."

She is going away to school in the fall and Auntie and she are getting her close ready. Alice is just a little girl and is some fun, although she crys real often Peggy says she is spoiled.
"It is he who ought to stand in the witness box; and the complainant in the dock, for he is at once the aggressor and the assailant.
