     summary: Mr. Mason also reminded us that Mrs. Koizumi did not understand a word of English; she must have recourse to an interpreter before communicating with her Irish sister-in-law, but, above all, in accounting for delay, Mrs. Atkinson had addressed her letter to Mrs. Lafcadio Hearn, a name by which no properly constituted Japanese postman would find himself justified in recognising Hearn's widow. When Mrs. Hearn separated from her husband to return to her own family she went to Malta, not to the Ionian Islands.

     summary: The drive ultimately rises and lowers over the undulations of the cliff, and is well shadowed along the greater part of its course: you will admire many huge _fromagers_, or silk-cotton trees, various heavy lines of tamarinds, and groups of _flamboyants_ with thick dark feathery foliage, and cassia-trees with long pods pending and blackening from every branch, and hedges of _campêche_, or logwood, and calabash-trees, and multitudes of the pretty shrubs bearing the fruit called in creole _raisins-bò-lanmè_, or sea-side grapes. She represented really the type of that _belle affranchie_ of other days, against whose fascination special sumptuary laws were made; romantically she imaged for me the supernatural god-mothers and Cinderellas of the creole fairy-tales.

     summary: [17] In the court you will find many ancient little foxes with noses, heads, or tails broken, two great Karashishi before which straw sandals (waraji) have been suspended as votive offerings by somebody with sore feet who has prayed to the Karashishi-Sama that they will heal his affliction, and a shrine of Kojin, occupied by the corpses of many children's dolls. There are little kittens of mother-of-pearl, and little foxes of mother-of-pearl, and little puppies of mother-of-pearl, and girls' hair-combs, and cigarette-holders, and pipes too beautiful to use.

     summary: Little Japanese girls who play with insects or small animals rarely hurt them, and generally set them free after they have afforded a reasonable amount of amusement. Of these, the enoki (Celtis Willdenowiana) and the yanagi (drooping willow) are deemed especially ghostly, and are rarely now to be found in old Japanese gardens.
