Présentation de l'éditeur

She felt her toilette to be extremely distinguished when war deprivations were taken into account. Im ready, she drawled, addressing her cousin. If we-all dont want to be late we might as well start. It smost train-time. Harriot settled back in her chair and began to rock furiously. I dont think Ill go to the depot to-day, she said finally. Corinne looked at her indignantly. What did you let me take all the trouble to powder my nose for then? she demanded. You know ma wont let me go alone in that crowd, and theres sure to be some news. Oh, bother the news! Harriot murmured under her breath, unconsciously turning her head to look in the direction of the kitchen. Harriot May! cried Corinne disapprovingly, you speak as if you didnt care about the victories of our great Confederacy.
