Beth Finds the Palace Beautiful

"The boy neglects his music now, and I'm glad of it, for he was getting too fond of it. But the piano suffers for want of use; wouldn't some of your girls like to run over, and practice on it now and then, just to keep it in tune, you know, ma'am?"


Today I wished I lived in 1860s Boston. I'd happily join Beth in keeping the piano from its suffering.
