"He wasn't what I call even gentlemanly," she told Alma, when the two were on their way home. "I suppose Tom Hopkinson thought you were setting your cap at him," retorted Alma. She relished the dignity of her married state, and enjoyed giving her spinster sister little claws when occasion called. However, Amanda had a temper of her own, and she could claw back.

Tobe is always so nice to her and she'll be sorry he's sorry, and then it will be all right, won't it?"

He said that was no matter, few did, and it wasn't much worth it they bought books for the look of the thing. AMANDA. Now, that was illiterate; he never could have graduated.
