But Kitty broke in impetuously , -- `` I 'll never wear that old muslin again ; it 's full of darns , up to my knees , and all out of fashion . So is my sacque ; and as for my hat , though it does well enough here , it would be absurd for Class Day . '' `` You do n't expect an entirely new suit for this occasion , -- do you ? '' asked Pris , anxiously . `` Yes , I do , and I 'll tell you how I mean to get it . I 've planned everything ; for , though I hardly dreamed of going , I amused myself by thinking how I could manage if I did get invited . '' `` Let us hear . '' And Pris took up her work with an air of resignation . `` First , my dress , '' began Kitty , perching herself on the arm of the sofa , and entering into the subject with enthusiasm . `` I 've got the ten dollars grandpa sent me , and with eight of it I 'm going to buy Lizzie King 's organdie muslin . She got it in Paris ; but her aunt providentially -- no , unfortunately -- died ; so she ca n't wear it , and wants to get rid of it . She is bigger than I am , you know ; so there is enough for a little mantle or sacque , for it is n't made up . The skirt is cut off and gored , with a splendid train -- '' `` My dear , you do n't mean you are going to wear one of those absurd , new-fashioned dresses ? '' exclaimed Pris , lifting hands and eyes . `` I do ! Nothing would induce me to go to Class Day without a train . It 's been the desire of my heart to have one , and now I will , if I never have another gown to my back ! '' returned Kitty , with immense decision . Pris shook her head , and said , `` Go on ! '' as if prepared for any extravagance after that .
`` We can make it ourselves , '' continued XXXXX , `` and trim it with the same .
