Out for a Walk with an Army of St. Bernard Dogs

The young lady will make some young man a fine wife, once she's dead.

wicked young lady! :p

Harkens back to the day when young women of "breeding" had nothing to occupy their minds and so resorted to mischief like this. Eventually she'd end up becoming a morphine addict or drunk conducting seances to the amusement of her female peers before dying of cirrhosis or TB. Tsk, tsk.

I liked it even though it was mean spirited. The trouble is that girl was far to clever and creative for her time. Today a girl like that would grow up to be an actress, a film maker or a writer.

I think I read this short story a while back in college.

Anyhow, that girl is pretty funny.

Gah - 12 minutes?
I read that story, too. Saki was a master of the short story.

That guy looked like whatisname from Ugly Betty.
