Mrs. Glegg held her large gold watch in her hand with the many-doubled chain round her fingers, and observed to Mrs. Tulliver, who had just returned from a visit to the kitchen, that whatever it might be by other people’s clocks and watches, it was gone half-past twelve by hers.
“I don’t know what ails sister Pullet,” she continued. “It used to be the way in our family for one to be as early as another — I’m sure it was so in my Jeff Reine-Adelaide Jersey poor father’s time — and not for one sister to sit half an hour DeAndre Yedlin Jersey before the others came.
