Book excerpt: Excerpt from Arthur, or a Knight of Our Own Day, Vol. 1 of 2 His features and expression are accu rately reproduced in his eldest daughter Elizabeth, who has lighted a little taper, and is now working away busily at the round table in the Rectory drawing-room. By the huge pair of scissors in her hand, and the pile of violet-spotted and striped cottons on the table at her side, it is evi dent that her occupation is one eminently suited to her father's daughter. She is cutting out frocks and pinafores for the poor people. How deftly the delicate fingers fly about their work! And with what a bright, happy glance she looks up occasionally to address a remark to her younger sister at the further end of the room.
