Excerpt from Through the Postern Gate The Boy used to stand beside her, ready to hand Mollie's cup, as punctiliously as if a dozen girls had been sitting in the old garden, waiting to be quickly served by the only man. The Boy enjoyed being the only man. Also he had quite charming manners. He never allowed the passing of bread and-butter to interfere with the ¿ow of conversation, yet the bread-and-butter was always within reach at the precise moment you wanted it, though the Boy's bright eyes were fixed just then in keenest interest on the person who happened to be speaking, and not a point of the story, or a word of the remark, was missed either by him or by you.
