    Ann Blenkinsop, who teaches at 'The Misses Blenkinsop's Select Seminary for Young Ladies' (421), is 'always reading two books—Paley and Debrett—and is up in them to a great extent; just a leetle jumble and confusion here and there—such as thinking the peerage the highest evidence of Christianity, and so on' (434).
