Quotation from: The Little Lady of the Big House

Written by: Jack London


She made announcement that her spell of insomnia was over and that she
was ripe for all gaieties and excursions Dick had to offer her.
Further, she threatened, in case Dick grudged these personal
diversions, to fill the house with guests and teach him what
liveliness was. It was at this time that her Aunt Martha--Mrs. Tully--
returned for a several days' visit, and that Paula resumed the driving
of Duddy and Fuddy in the high, one-seated Stude-baker trap. Duddy and
Fuddy were spirited trotters, but Mrs. Tully, despite her elderliness
and avoirdupois, was without timidity when Paula held the reins.
