CHAPTER VI
20/84

(Aunt Hattie says the violinist's automobile is a hired one.) And Mr.Easterbrook's flowers that he sends to Mother are handsomer, too, and lots more of them, than the violinist's.

Aunt Hattie has noticed that, too.

In fact, I guess there isn't anything about Mr.Easterbrook that she doesn't notice.
Aunt Hattie likes Mr.Easterbrook lots better than she does the violinist.

I heard her talking to Mother one day.

She said that any one that would look twice at a lazy, shiftless fiddler with probably not a dollar laid by for a rainy day, when all the while there was just waiting to be picked an estimable gentleman of independent fortune and stable position like Mr.Easterbrook--well, she had her opinion of her; that's all.
