And he was being kinder now and verythoughtful about the horse. She just didnt seehow Suellen could do such a thing. Oh, to be back at Tara, no matter how hard the life might be!
Everybody around here feels the same way about her, Im sorry tosay. You warnt never very muchinterested in what was in folks heads. Pore girl, shed better be dead than marriedto that pusillanimous Yankee Hilton.
She hasnt never got used to doin without.
To them she had done worse than murder her father. Scarletts heart failed a beat when she thought how close Tara hadcome to going back to wilderness.
Riding around in a coach and four and going toballs?
Alex said he never heard such fine cussin. It was you who helped him get away, wasnt it?
Its not a carriage, its an old buggy, said Scarlett indignantly.
You know Ilike Wade Hampton a lot, for all that he isnt the boy he ought tobe.
You warnt never very muchinterested in what was in folks heads.
And I mightas well tell you now shes aimin to go in a convent over toCharleston.
Will was just the same, lank andgangling, pink of hair, mild of eye, patient as a draft animal.

Alex said he never heard such fine cussin.
And he was being kinder now and verythoughtful about the horse. Thestillness of the country twilight came down about them as calmingas a prayer.
That day I took her to Jonesboro,she run into Mrs. But as much as thedoctor disapproved of Scarlett, he never suspected her of drinking.
Could I help it if he preferred me to her?
Scarlett rose from his shoulder, furious as a rattler ready tostrike.
Scarlett rose from his shoulder, furious as a rattler ready tostrike.
You will get out of this buggy this time, or I will hit you withthe whip.
Ill thank you to keep a civil tongue in yourhead, Will Benteen!
