"And I'm sure Judy would love to be with Mrs. Shelly alone—they'd have so much more chance for talk together." "Mary," said Aunt Adeline in a voice that sounded as if it had been buried and never resurrected, "if you are going to continue in such an unseemly course of conduct I hope you will remove your mourning, which is an empty mockery and an insult to my own widowhood.".
