Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Personal Conduct of Belinda
Teacher did was right, made her admirers the most amenable of charges. Miss Barnes attended to the business end of the tours and all went well.
The first two parties were made up entirely of Ryder girls. The third season saw the introduction of a new element. A spinster from a small Tennessee town, an elderly couple from Dakota, and a superannuated clergy man from Ohio applied for admission to the party, of which they had heard through girl relatives in the school.
After that, there were as many grown-ups as girls in the barnes-carewe parties, but they were child-like grown ups, quite as ingenuous and docile as the girls. Other wise they would have been travelling alone or would have preferred the bustling activity of a Cook's party to chaper omage by two young women.
In time came the fifth season of the combination and, early in May, Miss Barnes was forced to abandon her plans and drop the entire burden upon Belinda's shoulders.
