An etiquette book and a good tailor do not always produce a gentleman - neither does the Social Register include only gentlemen. Emerson by quaint stories tells how fashion and manners combine to make that rare product -- a gentleman. (Volume 5, Harvard Classics)

Emerson's first marriage, Sept. 30, 1829.
