Synopsis
Excerpt from Mrs. Hallam's Companion, And, the Spring Farm: And Other Tales
It was too small a place for her, she said, for every body knew everybody else's business and history, and, no matter how much she was worth, somebody was sure to taunt her with having worked in a shoe-shop, if, indeed, she did not hear that she had once picked her ries to buy herself some shoes. They must go away from the old life, if they wanted to be anybody. They must travel and see the world, and get cultivated, and know what to talk about with their equals.
