A Shakespearean reference would make sense Written by kathleen (elder) (9/12/2009 4:50 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Calling someone 'preserver', penned by Barbara

Margaret could easily be using preserver as an imprecise reference to some quotes from Shakespeare, and elegant might be an apt description of such usage. This makes sense to me.

Thanks! :-)
