She was, perhaps, rather proud of herself for having acquired so much tolerance. She awoke at three in the morning, after a dream of being tortured by Ella Stowbody and the Widow Bogart. "I've been making the town a myth. This is how people keep up the tradition of the perfect home-town, the happy boyhood, the brilliant college friends. We forget so.
I now began to tighten the reins on the children, and we all devoted more hours to work. During the month we gathered a few bushels of plums on the place. My wife preserved some, and the rest were sold at the boarding-houses and village stores, for Mr. Bogart had written that when I could find a home market for small quantities of produce, it would pay me better than to send them to the city.
After exchanging salutes, Mrs. Bogart was conveyed to her own residence, and there was a termination to that memorable expedition. Guert had less to communicate, in the way of dangers and marvels, than I had anticipated.
But there, there, I mustn't croak, I just wanted to let you know that when you find you can't depend on a lot of these gadding young folks like the Haydocks and the Dyers and heaven only knows how much money Juanita Haydock blows in in a year why then you may be glad to know that slow old Aunty Bogart is always right there, and heaven knows " A portentous sigh.
Our table was supplied with delicious vegetables, which, in the main, it was Mousie's task to gather and prepare. The children were as brown as little Indians, and we daily thanked God for health. Checks from Mr. Bogart came regularly, the fruit bringing a fair price under his good management.
Tell me " Her whisper was tinged with salaciousness "does oo feel the dear itsy one stirring, the pledge of love? I remember with Cy, of course he was so big " "I do not look lovely, Mrs. Bogart.
Bogart; for, careful as we had been, the drain on my capital had been long and steady, and were eager for the turn of the tide. I had bought a number of old Mr. Jamison's crates, had painted out his name and replaced it with mine. I now wrote to Mr. Bogart for packages best adapted to the shipping of cherries, currants, and raspberries. For the first he sent me baskets that held about a peck.
Mrs. Champ Perry bustled in to lend "Ben Hur," as a preventive of future infant immorality. The Widow Bogart appeared trailing pinkish exclamations, "And how is our lovely 'ittle muzzy today! My, ain't it just like they always say: being in a Family Way does make the girlie so lovely, just like a Madonna.
I didn't want him to get into no bad influences round these camps and then," Mrs. Bogart rose from her pitifulness, recovered her pace, "then I go and bring into my own house a woman that's worse, when all's said and done, than any bad woman he could have met. You say this Mullins woman is too young and inexperienced to corrupt Cy.
And the professor as much as admitted he was suspicious of the Mullins woman himself." Kennicott was less shocked and much less frightened than Carol, and more articulate in his description of Mrs. Bogart, when she had gone.
