Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from From Different Standpoints
The family: Oh, yes! There's Uncle Nathan and Aunt Phebe, and Margaret, their daughter. And very kind they all are.
As to my health: I am improving slowly, but Dr. Mason assures me that I must not think of going back to my books before May or June. With the time I have already lost, it will be too much to make up. So farewell to ambitious schemes and dreams for this year. The class of '60 will have to find another name to hand down as their most illustrious representative. Seriously, I have small hope of being able to graduate with the class, though I manage to study a little. If it were not for this restless longing to get back to the University I could be quite contented here. Cousin Kate's husband is Mr. Fowler, pastor of the church in Redwood. I find him a very agree able and intellectual gentleman, and I enjoy his society very much.
As for Cousin Margaret: What is she like? What should she be like, but a daisy? Are not all Margarets daisies? And is she not the purest and fairest of them all? But, like everything in this world, she is a puzzle and a contradiction.
