"No, countess, I will dispense with your services to-night. Charlote von Hieronymus will stay with me." Turning to her beloved little tire-woman she said: "I want your attendance yet awhile, Charlotte; you are to dress my hair to-night as becomes a widow. Good-night, ladies." The ladies of honor, with deep courtesies, left the room.
