| Publisher Description: It was a Sunday evening in October, and in common with many other young ladiesof her class, Katharine Hilbery was pouring out tea. Perhaps a fifth part of her mindwas thus occupied, and the remaining parts leapt over the little barrier of day whichinterposed between Monday morning and this rather subdued moment, and playedwith the things one does voluntarily and normally in the daylight. But although she wassilent, she was evidently mistress of a situation which was familiar enough to her, andinclined to let it take its way for the six hundredth time, perhaps, without bringing intoplay any of her unoccupied faculties. A single glance was enough to show that Mrs.Hilbery was so rich in the gifts which make tea-parties of elderly distinguished peoplesuccessful, that she scarcely needed any help from her daughter, provided that thetiresome business of teacups and bread and butter was discharged for her. |
