Excerpt from The Autobiography a Missionary, Vol. 2 of 2
Missis said nothing, and did not vouchsafe her sable attendant even a look, but pointed, in a dignified way to the handkerchief. The black page then raised and restored it very reverentially to its fair owner. All this struck me as rather ludicrous at first, but I became quite accustomed to similar scenes, and finally thought nothing about them.
