There was a small pond attached to the Briarwood property and Ruth tried Helen's skates there. She had been on the ice before, but not much; however, she found that the art came easily to her as easily as tennis, in which, by this time, she was very proficient.
"That a young lady of Briarwood Hall should be so piggish! Fie!" But it was after all the other girls had gone and Ruth and Helen were left alone with her, that the little French teacher seemed to really show her disappointment over the infraction of the rules by the pupils under her immediate charge. "I hoped for better things of you two young ladies," she said, sorrowfully.
"Briarwood Hall? I have heard of that. We go there soon, I understand. Mr. Hammond is to take some pictures in and around Lumberton." "Oh!" exclaimed Ruth. 'That will be nice! I hope we shall see you up there, Miss Gray, for Helen and I go back to school in a week."
God help me! Jim, have you got an English pipe?" "Yes; an English briarwood and some bird's-eye." Walker handed Hatteras his briarwood and his pouch of tobacco. Hatteras filled the pipe, lit it at the lantern, and sucked at it avidly for a moment. Then he gave a sigh and drew in the tobacco more slowly, and yet more slowly. "My wife?" he asked at last, in a low voice. "She is in England.
"And you were the girl who once ran away from Silver Ranch and the boys out there, because everything was so 'common," chuckled Tom. Ruth shut him off at that. She knew that the western girl could not stand much teasing. They were all nervous, anyway; at least, the girls were. Ruth and Helen approached their second year at Briarwood with some anxiety. How would they be treated?
I want all my girls happy and content. Use the advantages of our gym; join the walking club; we make a point of having one of the best basketball teams in this part of the State. Tennis is a splendid exercise for girls, and we have an indoor as well as outdoor courts. Yes, do not neglect the good times. But remember, too, that amusement isn't the main issue of life at Briarwood Hall.
Gunga Dass deposited a handful of trifles he had picked out of the burrow at my feet, and, covering the face of the body with my handkerchief, I turned to examine these. I give the full list in the hope that it may lead to the identification of the unfortunate man: 1. Bowl of a briarwood pipe, serrated at the edge; much worn and blackened; bound with string at the screw.
The sick, and the halt, and the lame were to come to Briarwood; as they had come to the Abbey House before Captain Winstanley's barren rule of economy. "God has been so good to us, Rorie," said Vixen, nestling at her lovers side. "Can we ever be good enough to others?" "We'll do our best, anyhow, little one," he answered gently.
"Sweetbriars," she said, blushing deeply. "Dandy!" exclaimed Phyllis Short. "Goody-good!" cried somebody else. "We're at Briarwood Hall, and why not Sweetbriars?" "Good name for initials, too," declared the practical Sarah Fish. "Make two words of it Sweet and Briars. The 'S. B.'s not bad that, eh? What say?" It was unanimous. And so the Sweetbriars were christened.
"Recovered his spache, has he? The saints be praised!" He obeyed Ruth, however, in each particular. If Roberto had it in his mind to run away, he had no chance to do so that day.
