Missus Carfry's

May archer and her husband were invited to a party at missus carfry's. They had purposely postponed going to london till the autumn in order that their arrival during the season might not appear pushing and snobbish to these unknown relatives. She seemed larger, fairer, more voluminously rustling than her husband had ever seen her. But beauty, even when distrustful of itself, awakens confidence in the manly heart. Archer noticed that his wife's way of showing herself at her ease with foreigners was to become more uncompromisingly local in her references.
