At Last – hinnat ja saatavuus

Excerpt from At Last: A Novel When there is a family of motherless children, and the father is himself young, it seems hard to require him to live alone for the rest of his life, she would allow candidly. Not that I pretend to say that a con nection formed through prudential motives is a real marriage in the sight of Heaven. Only that there is no human law against it. And the odds are as eight to ten that an efficient hired housekeeper would render his home more comfortable, and his children happier than would a stepmother. As for a woman marrying twice - her gentle tone and eyes growing sternlr decisive it is di icult for one to tolerate the idea. That is, if she really loved her first husband. If not, she may plead this as some excuse for making the ven ture poor thing But whether, even then, she has the moral right to lessen some good girl's chances f getting a husband by two for herself, has ever been and must remain a mooted question in my mind.
