Explore "Peter" by Francis Hopkinson Smith on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Peter's coat was finished in time for the wedding -- trust Isaac for that -- and so was his double-breasted white waistcoat -- he had not changed the cut in twenty years; and so were his pepper-and-salt trousers and all his several appointments, little and big, even to his polka-dot scarf of blue silk, patent-leather shoes and white gaiters. Quite the best-dressed man in the room, everybody said, and they of all the people in the world should have known.
And the wedding!
