The Ladies' Book of Etiquette, and Manual of Politeness

At
the
end
of
each
dance,
your
partner
will
offer
his
arm,
and
conduct
you
to
a
seat;
then
bow,
and
release
him
from
further
attendance,
as
he
may
be
engaged
for
the
next
dance.
When
invited
to
dance,
hand
your
ball
card
to
the
gentleman,
who
will
put
his
name
in
one
of
the
vacant
places.
If
you
wish
to
go
to
the
supper-room,
accept
the
invitation
that
will
be
made,
after
the
dances
whilst
it
is
open,
but
do
not
remain
there
long.
You
may
be
keeping
your
escort
from
other
engagements.
If
you
are
accompanied
by
a
gentleman,
besides
your
father
or
brother,
remember
he
has
the
right
to
the
first
dance,
and
also
will
expect
to
take
you
in
to
supper.
Do
not
let
any
one
else
interfere
with
his
privilege.
If
you
wish,
during
the
evening,
to
go
to
the
dressing-room
to
arrange
any
part
of
your
dress,
request
the
gentleman
with
whom
you
are
dancing
to
escort
you
there.
He
will
wait
for
you
at
the
door,
and
take
you
back
to
the
ball-room.
Do
not
detain
him
any
longer
than
is
necessary.
Never
leave
the
ball
room,
for
any
such
purpose,
alone,
as
there
are
always
gentlemen
near
and
round
the
door,
and
it
looks
very
badly
to
see
a
lady,
unattended,
going
through
a
crowd
of
gentlemen.
It
is
best
at
a
ball,
to
dance
only
every
other
dance,
as
over-fatigue,
and
probably
a
flushed
face,
will
follow
too
much
dancing.
Decline
the
intermediate
ones,
on
the
plea
of
fatigue,
or
fear
of
fatigue.
