Garth, Christy

Eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Garth, who has taken to books instead of business. "Christy, who held it the most desirable thing in the world to be a tutor, to study all literatures and be a regenerate Porson… a square-browed, broad-shouldered masculine edition of his mother... was always as simple as possible."
