Description
Excerpt from Oliver Beaumont and Lord Latimer, Vol. 3 of 3
Dorothy, when she pressed for Rosa mond''s coming, had asked for her help; but when Rosamond arrived, and had seen all she had done, she felt that little more of her help was needed. There ''are people whose intellects seem to lie, neither in the brain, nor yet in the heart that is, they are devoid of originality, and devoid of fancy and passion; and yet they have a good working intellect, nevertheless. Such was Dorothy''s. She could not think a thought by herself, but she could carry out the ideas of others with a kind of plodding, earnest patience which was not only effective, but remarkable in its way.
Her little home had now been for two months actually a living thing. Nothing could be more homely, nothing more humble than its beginning but there it was, living and working, and doing its appointed duty.
