Abby is in the front parlor reading the papers. It is quite useless to say anything about going into the country just now. If we are away from the daily papers, or if they are delayed an hour the girls get into a perfect fever; besides, Abby, you know, has decided never to go to the country again! Because she took a sea bath at Mary\u2019s and felt weak after it, she thinks the country doesn\u2019t agree with her! . . . Aunt Emily is going up to Lenox the last of next week, I believe. I hope so, for Uncle E. needs change; he looks miserably, has a constant cough, and seems quite run down; though when Aunt E. says, \u201cYou don\u2019t feel very bright to-day, do you, dear?\u201d he is quite indignant and makes a feeble attempt to sing \u201cthe Cock and the Hen,\u201d or to whistle \u201cDixie.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
