<span>Two Offers by Frances. Well for being such a short story it truly seems like long. It has complex details. First of all:

The summary: </span>The story described the lives of two cousins: Laura Lagrange, who married the wrong man [10a]<span>

Circumstances: its to be understood that when the author wrote the book there was a lot of racial injustice and also rasism towards people who had the inclination to be colored. To my, knowledge and understanding it's possible that the author didn't dare put that both cousins were African- Americans because then the story wouldn't be such a big hit; or would be unaccepted by the white crowd of people at that time. She possibly used an indirect of it in the story.  Instead, she emphasized </span>the romanticization of death and the recurring use of the label true. The story foregrounded values of domesticity, personal morality, and Christian charity.

Think about what you know about the Espionage and Sedition Acts. Now apply that to some real-world situations. Check any action
leva [86]
The following statements would result in the application of the Espionage and Sedition Acts: 

1) A person says that the government made a mistake by getting involved in the war.

2) A speaker suggests that people should stop work to protest the war.

3) A labor union holds a strike at a munitions factory.

Both of these statements would result in punishments according to the Espionage and Sedition Acts (passed in 1918, during World War I). These acts made any speech that was considered critical of the government or disloyal to the US illegal. Along with this, anyone who interfered with the war effort could be punished. This is why the statements above would be real world situations of the Espionage and Sedition Acts.
