Penny Plain

CHAPTER IV
9/13

Unfortunately most of her income died with her.
"I think perhaps it was largely this training that has given Jean her particular flavour.

She is the most happy change from the ordinary modern girl.

Her manners are delightful--not noisy, but frank and gay like a nice boy's.

She neither falls into the Scylla of affectation nor the Charybdis of off-handness.

She has been nowhere and seen very little; books are her world, and she talks of book-people as if they were everyday acquaintances.
