Marriage is important.
It was just after that happy visit of which I told at the end of What Katy Did, that Elsie and John made their famous excursion to Conic Section; an excursion which neither of them ever forgot, and about which the family teased them for a long time afterward.
Death leapt upon the Rev. Charles Cardinal, Rector of St. Dreots in South Glebeshire, at the moment that he bent down towards the second long drawer of his washhand-stand; he bent down to find a clean collar. It is in its way a symbol of his whole life, that death...
I scarcely know where to begin, thoughI sometimes facetiously place the cause of it all to Charley Furuseth's credit. He kept a summer cottage in Mill Valley, under the shadow of Mount Tamalpais, and never occupied it except when he loafed through the winter mouths and...
I knew nothing whatever last year about gardening and this year know very little more, butI have dawnings of what may be done, and have at least made one great stride from ipomaea to tea-roses....
Writing not long ago to my oldest literary friend, I expressed in a moment of heedless sentiment the wish that we might have again one of our talks of long-past days, over the purposes and methods of our art. And my friend, wiser than I, as he has always been, replied...
Life, struck sharp on death, Makes awful lightning. MRS. BROWNING.
