Her mother came to her from the back of the house, where things were in Saturday tumult, speaking with a voice of fretful satisfaction. 'I'd just given you up, and was wondering whether to let the meat spoil or begin dinner alone. 'I am sorry to be late, mother. 'No, you're not late, my dear, the mother admitted.
The quiet determination to endure much in the belief that we were coming to a country where we would better our condition sustained all in doing our best to make light of our trials.

He sees the peaceful dales invaded by white-faced factory-hands, loud-voiced, quarrelling, disrespectful.
