原文
Anne spent a fortnight of halcyon days at Echo Lodge in the golden prime
of August. While there she incidentally contrived to hurry Ludovic Speed
in his leisurely courting of Theodora Dix, as related duly in another
chronicle of her history.(1) Arnold Sherman, an elderly friend of the
Irvings, was there at the same time, and added not a little to the
general pleasantness of life.
(1 Chronicles of Avonlea.)
