Chapter XIII 



LIFE COMPANIONSHIP 



"Whenever we step out of domestic life in search of 

 felicity, we come back again disappointed, tired, and 

 chagrined. One day passed under our own roof, with our 

 friends and our family, is worth a thousand in any other 

 place. The noise and bustle, or, as they are foolishly 

 called, the diversions of life, are despicable and tasteless when 

 once we have experienced the real delights of a fireside." 



John Boyle.
