Have you got the courage, Nancy?" "I should n't wonder! I guess if I've had courage enough to wait for you, I've got courage enough to walk up the aisle with you and marry you besides!" said Nancy. "Now it is too late for us to stay here any longer, and you must see me only as far as my gate, for perhaps you have n't forgotten yet how interested the Brewsters are in their neighbors."
Of these Wrentham Brewsters, one served his country in Parliament, or I am very much mistaken. It was to their credit that they sought out godly men, to whom they might entrust the cure of souls.
Now lissun to me, whiles Ah explains how-come Ah spoke: Me and Jeb was sittin' over dinner, this noon, when Ah says to him, 'Ef the Brewsters plan to leave Pebbly Pit, Jeb, will you-all stay on and wuk the ranch fer 'em, or buy it outright? Now wasn't that a most natchul thing to ask?" Sary's apparent guilelessness made the girls stare and her mistress smile understandingly.
They yearn from tide flats to the spar buoy in the harbor channel, thence through Hull Gut to the rocky bottoms about the Brewsters. After that the sirens sing to them from every wash of white waves over ledges far out to sea, caution drowns in the temptation of blue water, and they fish no more except it is "down outside."
So great was the shock that for some moments it kept him silent, and before he could recover speech Archie had explained. "It's a birthday present from Lucille, don't you know." Mr. Brewster crushed down the breezy speech he had intended to utter. "Lucille gave me that?" he muttered. He swallowed pathetically. He was suffering, but the iron courage of the Brewsters stood him in good stead.

But Eleanor had done it all for friendship's sake. She knew what a radical change all this information would make in Barbara's estimation of the Brewsters and the ranch, so she said more than she herself really believed true. At that moment the dinner-horn sounded and the girls started for the house, without making further comment on the cliffs.
Will visit there for a week. Love to you both, FATHER" "How dare you ask father to come here? How do you know the Brewsters want him? And besides, there is no place for him to use as a sleeping-room!" she managed to say in her fury. Polly and Tom had been sitting outside on a truck but they could not help hearing Barbara's words. Polly smiled up at her companion.
"I thought I knew him," said Pat. And he shrugged his shoulders. Shoop noticed that Waring was gazing at Pat in a peculiar manner. He attached no significance to this at the time, but later he recalled the fact that there had been trouble between Pat and the Brewster boys some years ago. The Brewsters had then openly threatened to "get Pat if he ever rode north again." Down the Wind
"They never have good singers my Gladys could do better than any of them and they are interminable. Father looks tired to death, and I know he would rather stay at home. Gladys," she called, looking into her daughter's room, "where is your Camp Fire meeting to-night?" "At the Brewsters'," answered Gladys. "Do you ever have visitors?" continued her mother.
