Excerpt from *A Little Girl in Old Washington* :
"I don't see why I Should be called Patty when you've given up Jack and make such a fuss!" interrupted a Slim, unformed girl, who was nearly as tall as the first speaker.
"Well, Miss Patty, I am sixteen and in long gowns; and next winter I expect to go to balls and parties, and be presented at the White House. Oh, I wish it was a court!"
A young fellow, astride the low window seat, laughed with a teasing, bantering sound in his voice, and his deep eyes were alight with mirth."
