Explore "Life and Gabriella" by Ellen Glasgow on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.

Then suddenly Archibald's breezy laugh rang out into the hail, and raising her hand from the knob, she knocked softly on the white-painted panel of the door.
"Come in! " called O'Hara's voice carelessly; and Gabriell entered and imperatively held out her hand to her son, who was standing by the window.
