"Mighty interesting," I answered; "a combination of old New England and new, of ancestors and factories, of wealth and poverty, and above all it is interesting for its colony of New-Yorkers what shall I call it? a literary-artistic-musical combination, I guess." "Yes," he resumed, "I thought as much. Vera Lytton belonged to the colony.
