Wedding presents were very wonderful to her.

They were still spread out, most of them on tables in the parlour because all Fairbridge was interested in viewing them.

After a while Susan went into the parlour and gloated over the presents.

When she came back, she wore a slightly disgusted expression.
"You have beautiful presents," said she, "but I have been looking all around and the presents are not all on those tables, are they ?" "No," said Annie.
Von Rosen laughed.

He knew what was coming, or thought that he did.
"I see," said Aunt Susan, "that you have forty-two copies of Margaret Edes' book, _The Poor Lady_, and I have always thought it was a very silly book, and you can't exchange them for every single one is autographed." It was quite true.
