Some of it came out in the way of answers to my inquiries, and some of it was spoken in the intervals of laughing, talking, and tea-drinking.

But I want to show you how very different this young man is from the young men whom we are in the habit of meeting, and so I huddle his talk together in one sample, as Papa Farnaby would call it.
My dear, he is decidedly handsome (I mean our delightful Amelius); his face has a bright, eager look, indescribably refreshing as a contrast to the stolid composure of the ordinary young Englishman.

His smile is charming; he moves as gracefully--with as little self-consciousness--as my Italian greyhound.

He has been brought up among the strangest people in America; and (would you believe it ?) he is actually a Socialist.
Don't be alarmed.

He shocked us all dreadfully by declaring that his Socialism was entirely learnt out of the New Testament.
