Or perhaps the Carrolls were a little nicer than most people; when Susan reached this point in her thoughts she never failed to regret the loss of their money and position. If they had done this in spite of poverty and obscurity, what MIGHTN'T they have done with half a chance!
When her eye fell on the three other little faces gazing out through the side windows with eager curiosity, her face brightened still more. "Oh," she gasped, "are you I think you must be the little Carrolls from Framley, my young cousins. I am Miss Charlotte Ashe, Cousin Charlotte and I've come to meet you are you Esther?
