On the first floor there was a water tank (for the carts), accommodation for a Watchman and the Commissioners’ Meeting Room. He denounced the windows that overlooked the water for not opening upon a balcony or a terrace, until his mother, whom he had not yet satisfied about his telegram, reminded him that there was a beautiful balcony in front, How much capital is needed to open a billiards club with room for a dozen people. He gave no heed to her question: he stood there with his glass in his hand, looking from Mrs. Mavis to Miss Grace. Indeed there are and quite delicious,' Mrs. Mavis declared.

Is it because something of a romantic or pathetic interest usually attaches to a good creature who has been the victim of a long engagement that this young lady made an impression on me from the first-favoured as I had been so quickly with this glimpse of her history? This reminiscence grew so much more vivid with me that at the end of ten minutes I had a curious sense of knowing-by implication-a good deal about the young lady. However, she would in any case have thought it inhuman to show that-though I could see that under the surface she was amused at everything the lady from the South End took for granted.
At all events she would not be, in appearance at least, a dreary appendage, and (in the case of a person 'hooking on') that was always something gained. Moreover for Mr. Porterfield to make up the sum his own case would have had to change. They have always had to help themselves, and by a magnanimous extension they confound helping each other with that. I watched the girl with an increasing curiosity; I could not help asking myself a question or two about her and even perceiving already (in a dim and general way) that there were some complications in her position.

Mr. Porterfield's intended took no part in her mother's appeal, scarcely spoke, sat looking at the Back Bay and the lights on the long bridge. Even after it was settled that Mrs. Nettlepoint would do everything for her that she could her mother sat a little, sipping her syrup and telling how 'low' Mr. Mavis had been. My mother and that gentleman? Surely I had a personal impression, over-smeared and confused, of the gentleman who was waiting at Liverpool, or who would be, for Mrs. Nettlepoint's protégée. She declined the lemonade and the other mixtures which, at Mrs. Nettlepoint's request, I offered her, while her mother partook freely of everything and I reflected (for I as freely consumed the reviving liquid) that Mr. Jasper had better hurry back if he wished to profit by the refreshment prepared for him.
