`` You know he 's a Grit , Miss Cornelia . '' `` Yes , he IS , '' admitted Miss Cornelia rather sadly . `` And of course there is no hope of making a Conservative of him . But at least he is a Presbyterian . So I suppose I shall have to be satisfied with that . '' `` Would you marry him if he were a Methodist , Miss Cornelia ? '' `` No , I would not . Politics is for this world , but religion is for both . '' `` And you may be a ` relict ' after all , Miss Cornelia . '' `` Not I. Marshall will live me out . The Elliotts are long-lived , and the Bryants are not . '' `` When are you to be married ? '' asked Anne . `` In about a month 's time . My wedding dress is to be navy blue silk . And I want to ask you , Anne , dearie , if you think it would be all right to wear a veil with a navy blue dress . I 've always thought I 'd like to wear a veil if I ever got married . Marshall says to have it if I want to . Is n't that like a man ? '' `` Why should n't you wear it if you want to ? ''
