Word entry #3: A good man is hard to find

1. "She said the house had six white columns across the front and that there was an avenue of oaks leading up to it and two little wooden trellis arbors on either side in front where you sat down with your suitor after a stroll in the garden." (page 303)
2. My guess: I know it is a wood structure in front of the house, and people can sit on it. I think it might be a porch sort of thing.
3. Definition: a latticework bower intertwined with climbing vines and flowers. (Dictionary.com)
4. Explanation: Oh, I see it now: the trellis arbors is something I often see today in people's backyard as a part of the garden.
