Excerpt from Countess Kate, And, the Stokesley Secret
My frocks always will get upon the thorns. Ltis very odd.
Only do please, Katie dear, let me finish this sum; and then if Mary is not come, she can't scold if we are amusing ourselves.
I know! Cried Kate. I'll draw such a picture, and tell you all about it when your sum is over.
Thereon ensued silence in the little room, half parlour, half study, nearly filled with books and piano; and the furniture, though carefully protected with brown holland, looking the worse for wear, and as if danced over by a good many young folks.
