原文
"The MacPhersons have moved down to my place. She's a great housekeeper
and very particular. She's rooted all my June lilies up because she says
they make a garden look so untidy. Thomas set them lilies out when we
were married. Her husband seems a nice sort of a man, but she can't get
over being an old maid, that's what.
