• This paragraph in Daisy Miller, shortly after Winterbourne meets Daisy's little brother Randolph:

" 'My father's name is Ezra B. Miller,' Randolph announced. 'My father ain't in Europe; my father's in a better place than Europe.' Winterbourne imagined for a moment that this was the manner in which the child had been taught to intimate that Mr. Miller had been removed to the sphere of celestial reward. But Randolph immediately added, 'My father's in Schenectady. He's got a big business.' "

• • And when Winterbourne finds out that Daisy is "surrounded by half a dozen wonderful mustaches".
