"If you are tired," says the professor, somewhat curtly, and without looking at her, "I should think the best thing you could do would be to go to bed!" This astounding advice receives but little favor at Miss Wynter's hands. "I am tired of your brother," says she promptly.
But Maurice had now got all he wanted. He just glanced at the precious paper, put it away safely, declined Mrs. Wynter's offers, and was out of the house and on his way back to Chester in a very short space of time. "What an odd thing!" Mrs. Wynter said as she settled herself comfortably in the easy-chair again. "Who was he, mamma? What did he want?"
Not only do we gain from Wynter's letters a knowledge of the pains of colonial domestic service, but I know among New England historical collections no other such well of good old English words and phrases. The Declaration of Independence did not better the aspect of the servant question.
