Pa. But we had a notable Example of this not long since upon a certain Maid.
Ma. Where did she live?
Pa. At Orleans.
Ma. How many Years ago was it?
Pa. How many Years! not ten Months.
Ma. What was her Name? What do you stick at?
Pa. Nothing at all. I know her as well as I know you.
Ma. Why don't you tell me her Name then?
Pa. Because I am afraid it is ominous. I wish she had been of some other Name. She was your own Namesake.
Ma. Who was her Father?
