Trees, walls, telegraph-poles flashed past, and the cinders drove in showers against the rattling windows.

Now that's too bad!" "Now don't you worry, Father. She'll find her way. Like as not the conductor will have a time-table and be able to tell her all about the trains. But I certainly do wish we had let her know we would meet her." They were still worrying about it that night at nine o'clock while Father wound the kitchen clock and Mother put a mackerel asoak for breakfast.
