原文
"When I feel that I must have some excitement I read the murder trials
in that Boston paper my niece sends me. I never used to do it, but
they're real interesting. The States must be an awful place. I hope
you'll never go there, Anne. But the way girls roam over the earth now
is something terrible. It always makes me think of Satan in the Book of
Job, going to and fro and walking up and down. I don't believe the Lord
ever intended it, that's what.
