Agnes was a sight for freckles , so Aunt Olivia says . But she and father remained real good friends . Just think , if she had married him we would have been the children of the Governor 's wife . '' `` But she would n't have been the Governor 's wife then , '' said Dan . `` I guess it 's just as good being father 's wife , '' declared Cecily loyally . `` You might think so if you saw the Governor , '' chuckled Dan . `` Uncle Roger says it would be no harm to worship him because he does n't look like anything in the heavens above or on the earth beneath or the waters under the earth . '' `` Oh , Uncle Roger just says that because he 's on the opposite side of politics , '' said Cecily . `` The Governor is n't really so very ugly . I saw him at the Markdale picnic two years ago . He 's very fat and bald and red-faced , but I 've seen far worse looking men . '' `` I 'm afraid your seat is too near the stove , Aunt Eliza , '' shouted Felicity . Our guest , whose face was certainly very much flushed , shook her head . `` Oh , no , I 'm very comfortable , '' she said . But her voice had the effect of making us uncomfortable . There was a queer , uncertain little sound in it . Was Great-aunt Eliza laughing at us ? We looked at her sharply but her face was very solemn . Only her eyes had a suspicious appearance . Somehow , we did not talk much more the rest of the meal .
When it was over Great-aunt XXXXX said she was very sorry but she must really go .
