Calmness
 
 
 
 
      In Bret Harte's Mary McGillup, there is a notable description of calmness in most trying circumstances. 
 
    "'I have the honor of addressing the celebrated Rebel spy, Miss McGillup?'" asked the vandal officer. 
 
    "In a moment I was perfectly calm. With the exception of slightly expectorating twice in the face of the minion I did not betray my agitation."
