"You must be loony!" he muttered. And then, aloud, "Can't you play anything? What can you do?" "I can run," said Hugh, after another pause of reflection, "and swim, of course, and box a little, and fence." "Fence!" said Black-eyes; his voice took a more respectful tone. "Where did you learn to fence? You're too young, aren't you?" "I am nine!" said Hugh.
Well, Black-Eyes began to scold, and so, at last, she ventured across, and then she said she was tired and thirsty, and did wish she had a glass of milk; and so I asked her to go to the house, and rest a few minutes, and Aunt Jerusha would give them some milk.
