 Title:  Mère Giraud's Little Daughter  
 Published:  1995 
 Subjects:  University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text

There was a time, and it was but two years ago, that she was but plain Mere Giraud, and no better than the rest of us; and it seems to me, neighbors, that it is not well to show pride because one has the luck to be favored by fortune. Where, forsooth, would our `Madame' Giraud stand if luck had not given her a daughter pretty enough to win a rich husband?"
