1975.
Visits
of
Condolence.
Visits
of
condolence
after
funerals
should
be
paid
by
relatives
within
from
a
week
to
a
fortnight;
by
friends
within
the
second
week
of
the
fortnight;
friends
of
less
intimacy
should
make
enquiries
and
leave
cards.
1976.
Correspondence.
Correspondence
with
families
in
mourning
should
be
upon
black-edged
paper,
if
from
members
of
the
family;
or
upon
the
ordinary
notepaper,
but
sealed
with
black,
if
from
friends.
1977.
Ceremonies.
All
ceremonies
are
in
themselves
superficial
things;
yet
a
man
of
the
world
should
know
them.
They
are
the
outworks
of
manners
and
decency,
which
would
be
too
often
broken
in
upon,
if
it
were
not
for
that
defence
which
keeps
the
enemy
at
a
proper
distance.
It
is
for
that
reason
we
always
treat
fools
and
coxcombs
with
great
ceremony,
true
good-breeding
not
being
a
sufficient
barrier
against
them.
1978.
Love's
Telegraph.
If
a
gentleman
want
a
wife,
he
wears
a
ring
on
the
first
finger
of
the
left
hand;
if
he
be
engaged,
he
wears
it
on
the
second
finger;
if
married,
on
the
third;
and
on
the
fourth
if
he
never
intends
to
be
married.
When
a
lady
is
not
engaged,
she
wears
a
hoop
or
diamond
on
her
first
finger;
if
engaged,
on
the
second;
if
married,
on
the
third;
and
on
the
fourth
if
she
intends
to
die
unmarried.
When
a
gentleman
presents
a
fan,
flower,
or
trinket,
to
a
lady
with
the
left
hand,
this,
on
his
part,
is
an
overture
of
regard;
should
she
receive
it
with
the
left
hand,
it
is
considered
as
an
acceptance
of
his
esteem;
but
if
with
the
right
hand,
it
is
a
refusal
of
the
offer.
Thus,
by
a
few
simple
tokens
explained
by
rule,
the
passion
of
love
is
expressed;
and
through
the
medium
of
the
telegraph,
the
most
timid
and
diffident
man
may,
without
difficulty,
communicate
his
sentiments
of
regard
to
a
lady,
and,
in
case
his
offer
should
be
refused,
avoid
experiencing
the
mortification
of
an
explicit
refusal.
