Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Late Mrs. Null Miss Roberta's father was a man whose mind and time were entirely given up to railroads; and al though he nominally lived in New York, he was, for the greater part of the year, engaged in endeavors to forward his interests somewhere west of the Missis sippi. Two or three months of the winter were generally spent in his city home. At these times he had his daughter with him, but the rest of the year she lived with her uncle, whose household she di rected with much good will and judgment. The old gentleman did not keep her all the summer at Mid branch. He knew what was necessary for a young lady who had been educated in Germany and Swit zerland, and who had afterwards made a very favor able impression in Paris and London; and so, during the hot weather, he took her with him to one of the fashionable Southern resorts, where they always stayed exactly six weeks.
