MY FRIEND MRS. ANGEL. A WASHINGTON SKETCH.

关注小说网官方公众号（noveltingroom），原版名著免费领。


 My acquaintance with Mrs. Angel dates from the hour she called upon me, in response to my application at a ladies' furnishing store for a seamstress; and the growth of the acquaintance, as well as the somewhat peculiar1 character which it assumed, was doubtless due to the interest I betrayed in the history of her early life, as related to me at different times, frankly3 and with unconscious pathos4 and humor.
 
Her parents were of the "poor white" class and lived in some remote Virginian wild, whose precise locality, owing to the narrator's vague geographical5 knowledge, I could never ascertain6. She was the oldest of fifteen children, all of whom were brought up without the first rudiments7 of an education, and ruled over with brutal8 tyranny by a father whose sole object in life was to vie with his neighbors in the consumption of "black jack9" and corn whiskey, and to extract the maximum of labor10 from his numerous progeny,—his paternal11 affection finding vent12 in the oft-repeated phrase,[196] "Durn 'em, I wish I could sell some on 'em!" The boys, as they became old enough to realize the situation, ran away in regular succession;—the girls, in the forlorn hope of exchanging a cruel master for one less so, drifted into matrimony at the earliest possible age. Mrs. Angel, at the age of sixteen, married a man of her own class, who found his way in course of time to Washington and became a day-laborer in the Navy Yard.
