The Career of Katherine Bush. Glyn Elinor

СКАЧАТЬ after your lunch, how genteel! And my! what a lot of servants. Whatever do they all do?"

      "Their work, I suppose. You forget it is a big house and everything is splendidly done and beautifully clean, and regular and orderly."

      Here Matilda insisted upon a full list of all the retainers, and an account of their separate duties; her domestic soul revelled in these details, and at the end of the recital her awe knew no bounds. Katherine was able to give her a very circumstantial set of statements, as all accounts passed through her hands.

      "Well, your old lady must spend pints of money," Matilda said, with a sigh, "but we've not got to your afternoons yet, dearie. Do you work all them, too?"

      "When I am very busy – it depends how much I have to do; if I am not very occupied and I have not been out in the morning, I go for a walk before tea. I have to take her ladyship's two fox-terriers, Jack and Joe; they are jolly little fellows, and I love them. We scamper in the square, or go as far as the Park."

      "And your tea? They bring you up a cup, I suppose, every day – regular?"

      "Not a cup – a whole tray to myself, and lovely muffins and cream, Tild. Lady Garribardine has a Jersey herd of cows at her place in Blankshire, and the cream comes up each day from there."
