It seemed best to Myron to humor this inexplicable mood, until he could persuade her back into a normal one. "That wa'n't the way I understood it," he told her, "when I read the piece. The folks that were afflicted seemed like different folks. Now, you ain't any different, rain or shine. You're as even as anybody I should wish to see. That's what I've liked about ye, Caddie."
Nasty bit of rough, this!" "No, I can't find it. But tomorrow some miserable, chinless, half-witted reptile of a caddie with pop eyes and eight hundred and thirty-seven pimples will find it, and will sell it to someone for sixpence! No, it was a brand-new ball. He'll probably get a shilling for it. That'll be sixpence for himself and sixpence for the Greens Committee.
Make a point of seeing that your caddie always replaces your divots, or replace them yourself if you have no caddie. This, as we all know, is a golfer's first duty. If your ball at any time came to rest in a hole where a divot had not been replaced, you would be extremely annoyed, would say hard things about the other players on the links, and would declare that the course was badly kept.
"And we'll have good times when he's gone, ain't that so, Caddie?" said one of the domestics. "That we will," was the answer. "Better times than now, anyway, when you can't tell when he is coming in and when he is going out. It is a queer way he has with him lately." "I guess he is worried over his money." "Why, what do you know about that, Caddie Dix?" "What do I know, Nellie Casey?
"Seems if I could see her now standin' there on her front porch, her little handkercher round her neck " Caddie broke in upon this reminiscence, according to a custom so established that Anna Dutton only kept her mouth open for an instant, as if the opportunity for speech might return to her, and then quite calmly settled back with an air of pleased attention.
'You haven't the pleasure of Mr Ira Nutcombe's acquaintance, Claire, or you wouldn't talk like that. He wasn't the sort of man you could get things out of. He didn't even tip the caddie. Besides, can't you see what I mean? I couldn't trade on a chance acquaintance of the golf links to 'That is just what I complain of in you. You're too diffident. 'It isn't diffidence exactly.
Sympathetically he turned to his caddie to ask him what was the amount of the lost wager that he might pay it for him and soften his disappointment. "It was a penny, sir," said the boy. But despite his constant sarcasm and his utter inability to tolerate anything except the very best in golf, there is after all much good human kindness in your caddie if he is worthy of the name.
But he's gone to the war." "Oh, he has, has he?" Clayton built a small tee, and placed his ball on it. "Well, maybe we'll all be going some day." He drove off and started after the ball. It was not until he was on the green that he was conscious of the boy beside him again. "How old d'you have to be to get into the army, Mr. Spencer?" inquired the caddie, anxiously.
Aunt Caddie, 10 cents; Uncle Gilman, 5 cents; Cousin Walter, 4 cents; cash, 25 cents, $1.04 and the penny talent returned.
"I haven't seen her recently," she said coldly. "Nobody has. I do think she might have seen her clergyman. There is a time when only the church can give us the comfort we need, my dear." And whatever Mrs. Haverford's faults, she meant that quite simply. "And you say Clay knew?" "It's rather likely he would. They were golfing together, weren't they, when that caddie was hurt?"
