My mother's boarders were many of them young men, and usually farmers' sons. They were almost invariably of
good character and behavior, and it was a continual
pleasure for me and my brothers to associate with them. I
was treated like a little sister, never hearing a word or
seeing a look to remind me that I was not of the same sex
as my brothers. I played checkers with them, sometimes
"beating," and took part in their conversation, and it
never came into my mind that they were not the same as
so many "girls."
