Explore "Alice Adams" by Booth Tarkington on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Adams had a restless morning, and toward noon he asked Miss Perry to call his daughter; he wished to say something to her.
"I thought I heard her leaving the house a couple of hours ago -- maybe longer," the nurse told him. "I'll go see. " And she returned from the brief errand, her impression confirmed by information from Mrs. Adams. "Yes. She went up to Miss Mildred Palmer's to see what she's going to wear tonight."
