Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Miss. Ingalis He had called at her house before, one night of snow. The woman in black who came to the door - visibly not a servant - had told him Miss Ingalis was absent. She had made way for him to enter, so that she might shut out the cold, and in the hallway had imparted the further knowledge that her sister was in the West Indies; she had gone the first of February and was not expected home until the second week in March. "A friend, passing through the city on her way down there," she said, "picked up Grace at an hour´s notice and took her along." He had not known he could feel so dejected by not getting a sight of her at the end of that first pilgrimage to her dwelling. Tightening his overcoat to breast the icy wind, he had laid balm to himself by picturing her amid sunshine and warmth, palm-trees, pomegranates, hibiscus. He praised the friend who had had eyes to see that she was paler than she should be, - thinner, too, though that aerial thinness was so charming, - and had whisked her away for a holiday.
