When the next holidays came Ann Veronica’s mother was ill, and Gwen was
in the sick-room when Ann Veronica returned home. I
suppose you will think me very unsisterly and cold-hearted, but there are
circumstances in connexion with my sister’s latest exploit which are intensely
irritating both to my husband and to myself. Sheppard's dress—extremely
neat and clean, but simply fashioned, and of the plainest and most unpretending
material,—offered nothing assailable; and her demeanour was so humble, and
her looks so modest, that—if she had been ill-looking—she might, possibly,
have escaped the shafts of malice preparing to be levelled against her. And the change, the
change of attitude! The way all the old clingingness has been thrown aside is
amazing. It’s awkward,
but we’ll get round it somehow.
