Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of a Nonagenarian: Edited and Illustrated My grandmother, after her afternoon nap, usually joined her daughters, with a pretence at knitting, but she was not an industrious old lady. There was no necessity for work; and if idle hours are a sin, I fear the good woman had much to answer for. Leaning back in her easy-chair, she beguiled the time with watching the splendid prospect, with its ever-varying lights and Shades, or joined in the harmless gossip of some neighboring woman, who had run in with her sewing, for an hour's chat.
