Niagara "Aggie" Threepwood
Nee Donaldson, daughter of the Donaldson of Donaldson's Dog-biscuits fame, Aggie got her name thanks to her parents having spent their honeymoon at the Falls. A "sort of cousin" of Angus McAllister, Aggie is first seen through a telescope, kissing Freddie Threepwood in a small spinney down by the water-meadows in the short "The Custody of the Pumpkin"; they later elope together, assisted by her father. An extremely pretty girl, her father-in-law Lord Emsworth can never understand why such a charming young thing would want anything to do with Freddie, but is overjoyed that he has married a girl with a rich father. She and Freddie fall out briefly over his suspected dalliance with a movie-star, but are soon reunited.

Famous quotes containing the word niagara:
“We set up a certain aim, and put ourselves of our own will into the power of a certain current. Once having done that, we find ourselves committed to usages and customs which we had not before fully known, but from which we cannot depart without giving up the end which we have chosen. But we have no right, therefore, to claim that we are under the yoke of necessity. We might as well say that the man whom we see struggling vainly in the current of Niagara could not have helped jumping in.”
—Anna C. Brackett (1836–1911)
