The night was lovely, and she wouldn't miss her solitary ride home for anything. She was so glad Mrs. Stiles had the whisky. It would be just what her father needed when he waked up. And when, some hours later, Jacob Stanwood awoke, he found his daughter sitting beside him in the gray dawn. "Why, Elizabeth!" he said, "is anything the matter? Did I disturb you?"
A little crinkle appeared in the silhouette of a cheek, and she said, "I do like to hear you say 'the deuce. I don't believe Uncle Nicholas ever said 'the deuce' in his life."

The election of 1904 is discussed in Latane, Croly and Stanwood: see also C.M. Pepper, The Life and Times of Henry Gassaway Davis . The new railroad acts are well discussed in W.Z.

The freak that led them up the river to this place was their love of beautiful scenery. Land was cheap, and at first they tried farming, but presently they started a carpet factory, their old business, and being ingenious men, they made some improvements. Ralph Stanwood, another Englishman, joined them.
When James died he left his business to his brother and his share of the farm to Marcia. When William died the business went to his son James, except the small share belonging to Stanwood. James married a stylish young woman who never quite suited Aunt Marcia. They lived in the new village in a pretentious house, and came out now and then to the farm.
"It cannot but be gratifying to me," Stanwood remarked, in the half-satirical tone he found easiest in conversation with this near relative; "in fact, I may say it is gratifying to me, to find that the impression is mutually favorable.
