[Gypsy’s Cousin Joy by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps]@TWC D-Link bookGypsy’s Cousin Joy CHAPTER XI 4/13
This is what Joy had to say:-- New York, June 17,--Tuesday Night. "Oh, I'm so tired! We've been 'on the go' all day.
You see, we got into Boston last night, and took the boat, you know, just as we expected to. I've been on so forty times with father; he used to take me ever so often when he went on business; so I was just as used to it, and went right to sleep; but Gypsy, you know, she's never been to New York any way, and never was on a steamer, and you ought to have seen her keep hopping up in her berth to look at things and listen to things! I expected as much as could be she'd fall down on me--I had the under berth--and I don't believe she slept very much.
I don't care so much about New York as she does, either, because I've seen it all.
Uncle thought we'd stay here a day so as to look about.
He wanted Gypsy to see some pictures and things.
