It was really too bad of Alicia, although I don't see why I need have cared. Alicia kept her eye on us both until Jack was fairly gone. Then she remarked in the patronizing tone which I detest: "Really, Katherine, Jack Willoughby has developed into quite a passable-looking fellow, although he is rather shabby.
