At the threshold, his wizened face wreathed in smiles, she was met by an old negro carrying a foot- stool.and bowing profoundly. “A fine day.

We'll have tea in the garden.” ; “Yes’'m.” Four fifty-five to the minute marked the beginning of the “ n pleasant weather it was always served out of doors, usually in Amanda’s favorite corner where box grew thickest and blended its spicy fragrance with the aroma of Oolong and mint. Sometimes the young people clamored' to have the table close to the swimming pool. the tennis courts, or down on the lowest ter- race which gave upon the meadow where hurdles for trying new hunters, had been placed. Usu- ally though. it was in “Gran’s own corner.” that everyone assembled during the long summer after- noons to fritter away ‘a golden hour.

She crossed the columned portico and _ formal stone terrace. walked, between box. down five steps to clipped green sward. past century-old rose arbors. a lily pond. and turned into a narrow walk. where wild violets pointed the way to her peacock chair under the oak.

The s Goodloes never “gave a tea,” but if one was lucky enough to be inside the boxwood hedge. which grew three rows thick in places, one received a fragrant pink lustre cup from Amanda's hand. Having tea at Goodloe’s Choice was like being presenteu at 23 vrivate drawingroom—something to boast about casually. It placed one very definitely. for although the hour was informal, Amanda did not pass out tea promiscuous- ly Woe be to the climber who penetrated her hedge! Through contented eyes she looked about her. Of all her pos- sessions—they were many and varied—she placed the highest value upon the boxwood hedge.
