"Her satchel?" "Yes. Inie wouldn't take it north herself, but Di had it." "Mother," said Lulu, "when Di went away just now, was she carrying a satchel?" "Didn't I just tell you?" Mrs. Bett demanded, aggrieved. "I said I didn't think Inie " "Mother! Which way did she go?" Monona pointed with her spoon. "She went that way," she said. "I seen her." Lulu looked at the clock.
She was committing all the excesses that she knew offering opinions, laughing, eating. It was to be seen that this woman had an immense store of vitality, perpetually submerged. When she had eaten she grew sleepy rather cross at the last and inclined to hold up her sister's excellencies to Lulu; and, at Lulu's defence, lifted an ancient weapon. "What's the use of finding fault with Inie?
Bett followed Lulu to the kitchen; "I didn't tell Inie about her bag and now she says I don't know nothing," she complained. "There I knew about the bag the hull time, but I wasn't going to tell her and spoil her gettin' home." She banged the stove-griddle. "I've a good notion not to eat a mouthful o' supper," she announced. "Mother, please!" said Lulu passionately. "Stay here. Help me.
"You little darling!" cried Mrs. Bett, and clung to her, her lifted eyes lit by something intense and living. But when the ice cream party had set off at last, Mrs. Bett left her supper, gathered up the flowers, and crossed the lawn to the old cripple, Grandma Gates. "Inie sha'n't have 'em," the old woman thought.
Where'd you been if she hadn't married?" Lulu said nothing. "What say?" Mrs. Bett demanded shrilly. She was enjoying it. Lulu said no more. After a long time: "You always was jealous of Inie," said Mrs. Bett, and went to her bed.
In some corresponding orgy of leisure and liberation, Lulu sat down with no needle. "Inie ought to make over her delaine," Mrs. Bett comfortably began. They talked of this, devised a mode, recalled other delaines. "Dear, dear," said Mrs. Bett, "I had on a delaine when I met your father." She described it. Both women talked freely, with animation. They were individuals and alive.
