In the meantime, the waiters who had waited in vain and the wanderers who had wandered fruitlessly, began to realize that the situation was serious. Billie grew desperately impatient. At last she succeeded in engaging a carry-all and two horses from a man at the moat house and soon she and Nancy, seated face to face, were hurrying along the road. Dr. Hume had met Percy.
She answered with deafening promises, when they put their bonnets out of the carry-all and called back to her to be sure to come soon to see them soon. Mrs. Bolton made no advances with Annie toward the discussion of her friends; but when Annie asked about their families, she answered with the incisive directness of a country-bred woman.
Tom and Nat had brought the relief supplies from the wagon old Abe's strongest carry-all which had successfully weathered the snowdrifts between Tanglewood Park and The Cedars. "It's stopped snowing," announced Nat cheerfully. "Guess we will be able to make it all right by daylight."
"He won't scratch him again," Laddie said. "They're good friends now." "I don't want to see Zip scratched," returned Rose. "I just want to see Green Pond and the red-haired man and the cat." "I'll tell you what we can do," said Grandma Bell. "We can all go on a picnic to Green Pond to-morrow. We'll go in the carry-all and take our lunch. I know Mr.
Spiele looked frequently at the long one to watch his expression while the savage Swiss was emptying before him his social carry-all. Höflinger said so little that the young man suspected him of being at heart a bourgeois, of having fallen away from the labor cause after he had earned his house and garden.

"Yes," resumed Bingham, availing himself of Marshall's own figure, "the young people are dancing though no more briskly than they should; but why may not the old people dance, too?
The younger children, the boys with great frilled collars, the girls with ill-fitting shoes cramping their feet, leaned from the sides of buggy and carry-all, eating bananas and "macaroons," staring about with ox-like stolidity. Tied to the axles, the dogs followed the horses' hoofs with lolling tongues coated with dust. The California summer lay blanket-wise and smothering over all the land.
So I jes' tuk Sally an' de chillen in de carry-all dat Nimbus lent me wid de mule, an' started on furder down east. 'Clar, I jes hev ter pay Nimbus fer dat mule an' carry-all, de berry fus' money I gits out h'yer in Kansas. It certain war a gret help ter Berry. Jest as long ez I hed dat tertrabbel wid, I knowed I war safe; kase nobody wouldn't nebber'spect I was runnin' away in dat sort ob style.
At length, the doctor got down from the carry-all, letting down the rain-flaps on that side as well. "Will somebody go home with the body?" he asked. Gethings stepped forward and took his place by the driver. The carry-all drove away. Presley reentered the house. During his absence it had been cleared of all but one or two of the Leaguers, who had taken part in the fight.
Hilma, very much excited, leaned from the carry-all, anxious to see everything, watching for rabbits, asking innumerable questions of Annixter, who rode at her side. The change that had been progressing in Hilma, ever since the night of the famous barn-dance, now seemed to be approaching its climax; first the girl, then the woman, last of all the Mother.
