"Life at Lost River and the neighboring plantations along the Mississippi still kept the manners and the surface grace of the South before the war. The people who gathered to dance and hunt and make love knew that they were confronted with the problems of a changed and changing world, but they clung, with a sort of foolish gallantry, to the belief that their own immediate manner of life and living need not be altered".
