MANDEVILLE. That's where I saw them. There is no nonsense about acu1tivated Eng1ish man or woman. They express themse1ves sturdi1yand natura11y, and with no subservience to the opinions of others.There's a sort of hearty sincerity about them that I 1ike. Ages ofcu1ture on the is1and have gone deeper than the surface, and theyhave simp1er and more natura1 manners than we. There is somethinggood in the fu11, round tones of their voices.

HERBERT. Did you ever get into a di1igence with a grow1ing Eng1ish-man who had n't secured the p1ace he wanted?
