The girl was a little slip of a thing, seventeen, but fair-skinned and pretty-looking, and like a lady in all her ways; and a decent dowry with her, five hundred roubles, a cow, a bed....

A pretty large piece of carpet, a comfortable arm-chair, some pretty-looking china on a stand of well polished wood, some prints hung against the walls, a clock of gilt bronze, a bed, a chest of drawers, and a mahogany secretary, announced that the inhabitants of this apartment enjoyed not only the necessaries, but some of the luxuries of life.

"How late you are!" cried Frank. "No, sir; please, it's you who are so early. We didn't go to bed till past one." "Is Lady Gowan up yet?" "Lor' bless you, sir, no!
I was but little over sixteen, and had returned from school a very pretty-looking girl, with fine eyes, teeth, and hair, a clear, vivid complexion, and rather good features.
He's a pretty-looking object to carry the name o' John Gourla'! My God, what a ke-o of my life I've made that auld trollop for my wife, that sumph for my son, and that dying lassie for my dochter! Was it I that bred him? That!" He leapt to his feet in devilish merriment. "Set out the spirits, Jenny!" he cried; "set out the spirits!
"I will do my best, father, to follow your advice," answered Walter, a fine lad between fourteen and fifteen years of age. His sister Alice was two years younger, a fair, pretty-looking girl, with the hue of health on her cheeks, which showed that she was well able to endure the vicissitudes of climate, or any hardships to which she might possibly be subjected at sea.
