“There is nothing so attractive in a woman as a mind thirsty after knowledge and capable of receiving it.”

“Otis, at last, removed his eyes from Jane. "All very well, my friend, but I must side with Miss Clarke here. The soldiers in this town have been treated abominably."
The table went still.

Aunt Gill said, "And what have we got to hand but a few stories in the paper?"

"We have the people, Aunt," Nate answered her. "Thirty thousand from all the outlying towns, ready to march at a minute's notice, and all it takes to call them is a flaming barrel of pitch on the beacon hill.”
