But I'm proud, and glad, Bel; and you're my friend! The rest will all work out right, somehow." "Thank you, dear Mrs. Scherman," said Bel, her voice full of feeling.
Ambrose followed, and so did my Aunt Kezia, for she said men knew nought about airing beds, and it was as like as not Bessy would take the blankets from the wrong chest if she were not after her. Hatty was not in the room, and Flora had carried off her letter, which was from my Uncle Drummond. So Ephraim and I were left alone, for, somewhat to my surprise, he made no motion to follow the rest.
He perceived the broken-backed chair on which his clothes were heaped with the exception of his flannel shirt, which he still wore; he caught a glimmer of white where Gertie's blouse hung up for an airing. He half expected that things would appear more hopeful if he sat up in bed. Yet they did not.

When I returned to the carriage, as my father had desired me to take an airing, I thought I might as well have a companion, so I directed them to drive to Mr Cophagus's.
'Oh! Frank, is that you? Arthur said. 'I am sorry I woke you, but I smelled an awful smell somewhere, and traced it to the hall, which you see I am airing; better shut the door or you will take cold. The house is full of malaria. He was certainly crazy; there could be no doubt of it; and next morning, when Mr. St.
Unrestrained by Lincoln's anguish, the Committee demanded a conference a few days after his son's death and threatened an appeal from President to Congress if he did not quickly force McClellan to advance.
