Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Alabaster Box We," said Mrs. Solomon Black with weighty emphasis, are going to get up a church fair and raise that money, and we are going to pay your salary. We can´t stand it another minute. We had better run in debt to the butcher and baker than to the Lord." Wesley Elliot regarded her gloomily. "I never liked the idea of church fairs very well," he returned hesitatingly. "It has always seemed to me like sheer beggary." "Then," said Mrs. Solomon Black, "we will beg." Mrs. Solomon Black was a woman who had always had her way. There was not one line which denoted yielding in her large, still handsome face, set about with very elaborate water-waves which she had arranged so many years that her black hair needed scarcely any attention. It would almost seem as if Mrs. Solomon Black had been born with water waves. She spoke firmly but she smiled, as his mother might have done, at the young man, who had preached his innocent best in Brookville for months without any emolument.
