About this ebook

"Mr. Mitchell's gift as a story-teller lies in the direction of fancy and satire, mingled with delicate sentiment. The five stories in the volume are different in motive, but of equally surprising workmanship. "The bachelor's supper" is a splendid bit of sentiment. "Mrs. Lofter's ride" is satirical. "That first affair" is a modernized version of the Garden of Eden, told with extreme delicacy."--Publisher's description.
