Excerpt from Phoebe Tilson In the early fall of 18 -, the town of Byfield, Massachusetts, was deeply stirred by the tragedy of Ph be Tilson's marriage; or, to express oneself more accurately, of her abortive marriage. Ph be was a spinster, rising forty, and looked every one of her years. She was lean and angular. Her pale orange hair was thin, and upon her face Time had set his stamp in those lines from nostril to chin which are the sure indication of his progress. Ph be had never been really young; had never sown the crop of feminine wild oats usually scattered broadcast by the Byfield girls before settling down into matronhood; had never been to dances; never had played whist or high-low-jack, or heard the sleigh-bells at midnight. She had always been serious-minded. Had at fifteen joined the church of which her father was deacon, a man who would never have condoned in his only child the pursuit of amusements so sinful.
