We may get that Portygee streak out of him, poetry and all, give us time; eh, Rachael?" It was the first time in months that he had used the word "Portygee" in connection with his grandson. Mrs. Ellis smiled to herself.
"Why, leave him here with Mary. We won't be gone four weeks." Rachael smiled, but it was an uneasy, almost an affronted, smile. "Oh, Warren, we couldn't! I couldn't!

"I believe," Rachael said, "that in those seven years I might have won your father to something better if I had cared. He wasn't a hard man, just desperately weak.
