Excerpt from Aunt Anne: A Novel
The band was playing a waltz, though to this day they do not know it. All manner of people were passing to and fro, but they did not notice them.
I should like to stay here forever, Mrs. Hibbert said, with a sweet sigh of content. Do you know, Walter, she went on, suddenly, after a pause, it will be four months to-morrow since we were married? Time seems to have flown.
