People who have a La Fleur must expect to see their friends at their table much oftener than if they had a Biddy in the kitchen.

That is one of the penalties of good fortune.

I have my cap in my bag, and as soon as I have cooled a little I will take off my bonnet and shawl.

This afternoon I am going to see the Bannisters, and after that I intend to call on Mrs.Drane and her daughter.

I put off that until the last in order that Miss Drane may be at home.
