Excerpt from The Tell-Tale: Or Home Secrets Told by Old Travellers
Come, it is just our dinner hour, said Mr. War ren come home with me, and let us have a talk about old times.
With all my heart, said Morton I want to see the wife, and children, too. Has the wife the laughing black eyes and silken ringlets you married in imagination long ago, Harry?
Not exactly, said Warren, without returning very heartily his friend's smile. My wife was pretty, once, though; she was very pretty when I married her, but she is a feeble woman; she has seen a great deal of illness since then, and it has changed her somewhat.
