Excerpt
It is Arcady down here by the river, and though the house is overlarge, and the garden large but over-little, there is none of that wearing effort to live a so-called social life. A dinner party once in a while, maybe, a quiet game of bowls twice in the week or so on summer’s evenings, a casual luncheon at some friend’s as one returns from a long ride—these can scarcely be considered evidence of the true social disposition. Yet society is not wanting; the garden, and the score acres that lie about it, are full of comrades—comrades with few of the human vices, and with many virtues attributed usually to the best of our own kind.
