"You ain't the first one as mistook a stump for livin' creetur in the night, and don't you talk about givin' up nor nothin' like it, darlin', for we couldn't do without you noways nor you without us, for yet a while, I'm thinkin', though it does seem strange and never you mind one straw for what Madeline said, for she was kind o' out to-night, anyway, not having got no letter from Philander, I suppose.
Her mother approached her still more nearly. "I'm afraid," she said, in a very low voice, "I'm afraid to ask it."
