"You've got to do what you're told," said Zora, conclusively. She noticed a shade of anxiety cross his face. "Is there anything else?" "Wiggleswick. I don't know what's to become of him." "He can come to Nunsmere and lodge with the local policeman," said Zora. On the evening before they started from Paris she received a letter addressed in a curiously feminine hand.

"I hope they'll take the hint," she muttered, and turned back toward the camp, knowing that the sound of her shot would cause anxiety. "What were you shooting at?" cried Hippy, who had started to run toward the sound. "At a mark," replied Grace truthfully. "Oh, all right. Breakfast's ready." Grace went to the stream that flowed from the foot of the waterfall near by.

They were, indeed, just a little afraid of their own action in locking her up; their mother might have condoned it as "high spirits," but their father was not unlikely to take a different view. So they awaited her reply with some anxiety. Cecilia hesitated. Never in her life had she been so tempted. Perhaps because the temptation was so strong she answered swiftly.
