"Well, I'm glad I've got it. Mother's got the Dower House in Wyck. But she'll stay on here till " "Till Jerrold comes back," said Anne bravely. "I don't suppose Jerry'll turn her out even then. Unless " But neither he nor Anne had the courage to say "unless he marries." Not Anne, because she couldn't trust herself with the theme of Jerrold's marrying.

He knew if he were a young lover who had offended Nan and driven her away, that was what he should do: follow and humble himself before her. "Jerry'll drive you down." So it happened that when Amelia, carefully dressed, came out of her room at noon, Dick had left without a word to her and her dignified resentment was only diverted by hearing Nan, too, had gone.

Only I want to get them up there. To-morrow I shall be carrying books and things." She got the blankets without a word, venturing only, as she gave them to him: "Jerry'll be as mad as fire with me for not sendin' him up to lug 'em." Raven smiled at her and went off with his load.

He got up and took it away from him, and Tenney dumbly suffered it. "We'll go down now and have some breakfast, and Jerry'll do your chores." "I can do my own chores," said Tenney. "I can go into the barn, I guess." By this Raven understood that he did not mean to go into the house. Perhaps he was afraid of it. Men are afraid of houses that have grown sinister because of knowing too much.

I'm the last freighter on the Plains to go slanderin' an' detractin' of a pore he'pless mule onless it's straight; but if you-all takes to leavin' keepsakes an' mementoes layin' about casooal an' careless that a-way, Jerry'll eat 'em; an' the first you saveys your keepsakes is within Jerry's interior, an' thar you be. "'The fact is, stranger, this Jerry mule's a thief, I says.

Don't you want to show 'em to your uncle? Miss Thorley an' Mr. Jerry'll understand," she said as Mary Rose ran to bring the goldfish. "An' I hate to argue with her today. She can wear those now, but tomorrow she'll put on proper girls' clothes to go to school. I don't care what Brown an' Lawson or anyone else says. You hain't heard anythin' from them, have you?"

"I hope you've taken a good look at Jerry's face," she said, "and seen that he ain't half as bad as he tries to make out. Jerry'll make a fine neighbor for any man if he's let be; and we do want a home of our own, awful bad!

"Jerry'll see you home. And you'll come again, won't you? Soon.... Will you take them? I gathered them for you." "Thanks. Thanks awfully." Anne's voice came with a jerk. Her breath choked her. Jerrold was coming down the garden walk, looking for her. She said good-bye to Maisie and turned to go with him home. "Well," he said, "how did you and Maisie get on?"

Jerry meant them to take the place of darling Jenny Lind and nothing can do that fish nor dogs nor cats nor squirrels nor anything. But when I watched them swim I found they could have a place of their very own and so I'm very glad now to have them." "Of course you are. But eat your breakfas', child, or Mr. Jerry'll be callin' for you before you're ready."

First time round over fences, Boy. Then you and Jerry'll pull out and Stanley'll pick up the running and take him round again over the flat. Now!" Boy and Jerry set their horses going quietly. The girl's head was on her shoulder, watching if the horse she was to pace was coming along. He was thinking about it.
