`` In about three weeks , if all goes well . I 'm having it all painted and done over inside . The outside can wait until the spring . '' `` It 's queer how things come about , '' said Mrs. Stapp meditatively . `` I guess old Mrs. Carroll never imagined her home was going to pass into other folks ' hands as it has . When you and I were girls , and Louise Carroll was giving herself such airs over us , you did n't much expect to ever stand in her shoes , did you ? Do you remember Lou ? '' `` Yes , I do , '' said Mrs. March sharply . A change came over her sonsy , smiling face . It actually looked hard and revengeful , and a cruel light flickered in her dark brown eyes . `` I 'll not forget Lou Carroll as long as I live . She is the only person in this world I ever hated . I suppose it is sinful to say it , but I hate her still , and always will . '' `` I never liked her myself , '' admitted Mrs. Stapp . `` She thought herself above us all . Well , for that matter I suppose she was -- but she need n't have rubbed it in so . '' `` Well , she might have been above me , '' said Mrs. March bitterly , `` but she was n't above twitting and snubbing me every chance she got . She always had a spite at me from the time we were children together at school . When we grew up it was worse . I could n't begin to tell you all the times that girl insulted me .
But there was once in particular -- I 'll never forgive her XXXXX it .
