She softly stroked her niece's sunny hair, as she spoke, and the kind old face was full of pitying tenderness.
Very few minutes sufficed this morning for her toilet usually a tedious and fastidious one her dress, her bonnet, her shawl, were hastily thrown on, her watch secured with the few jewels lying upon the night-table; the rest of her valuables were with other boxes in the hold, the repository of all unneeded baggage, and these, of course, she could scarcely hope to save in case of fire, even if lives were rescued.
