[Austin and His Friends by Frederic H. Balfour]@TWC D-Link bookAustin and His Friends CHAPTER the Twelfth 27/74
We came to the market-place of Appius filled with sailors and insolent brokers._--Were they stockbrokers, I wonder? Oh, auntie, these are exercises done by my grandfather when he was a little boy.
Poor little grandfather; what pains he seems to have taken over it, and how beautifully it's written. I hope he got a lot of marks; do you think he did? _The sailor, soaked in poor wine, and the passenger, earnestly celebrate their absent mistresses._ Poor things! They don't seem to have had a very enjoyable excursion.

Oh--here are a lot of letters.
Not very interesting.
