She is so handsome that all the young men stand round to see her come out of meeting.

Some say that Lawyer Bradshaw is after her; but my! he is ten years older than she is.

She is nothing but a girl, though she looks as if she was eighteen.

She lives up at a place called The Poplars, with an old woman that is her aunt or something, and nobody seems to be much acquainted with her except Olive Eveleth, who is the minister's daughter at Saint Bartholomew's Church.

She never has beauxs round her, as some young girls do--they say that she is not happy with her aunt and another woman that stays with her, and that is the reason she keeps so much to herself.
