Excerpt from Money Magic
At the time of this story trade was good at the Eagle for two reasons. Mrs. Gilman was both landlady and Cook, and an excellent cook, and, what was still more alluring, Bertha, her pretty daughter, was day-clerk and general manager. Customers Of the drummer type are very loyal to their hotels. And amazingly sensitive to female charm - therefore Bertha, who would have been called an attractive girl anywhere, was widely known and tenderly recalled by every brakeman on the line. She was tall and straight, with brown hair and big, candid, serious eyes - wistful when in repose, boyishly frank and direct as she stood behind her desk attend ing to business, or smiling as she sped her parting guests at the door.
