"I know, because old Schmidt fell into a field, with a bull in it there, one afternoon and his Green Grasshopper was nearly broken up." "Come on, boys; I'll get out my little mare and we'll drive over there," shouted Bill. In a few minutes the horse was hitched to Bill's old carryall and, the boys piling in, they drove rapidly off.
Peterkin waved parasol and hat, and the party in the carryall returned their greetings, but they were too far apart to hear each other. Mrs. Peterkin and Agamemnon slowly resumed their walk. "Well, we shall find Elizabeth Eliza in the carryall," she said, "and that will explain all."
The big carryall appeared, and, with much creaking and swaying Mrs. Kipp was got into the back seat, where the big bonnet gloomed like a thunder-cloud.
Caroline Liscom did not come, and I did not wonder at it for one. She must have thought it a good chance to rest one day from taking boarders. We were surprised that Mrs. Jameson, since she is such a stout woman, did not go in the carryall, and let either her younger daughter or the boy go with Harry and Harriet in the buggy.
"Well, now you mention it," said Captain Perez, "it IS cold, ain't it? I've a good mind to jump overboard, and try to swim ashore and tow the carryall." "Don't you DO it! My land! if YOU should drown what would become of ME?" It was the tone of this speech, as much as the words, that hit the Captain hard.
He left the store quickly and made his way to where Ezekiel was waiting for him with the carryall. "Now, 'Zeke, we'll go to the Hospital and see poor Hiram." They found him hobbling about on crutches in the grounds of the Hospital. "How long have you been here, Hiram?" was Quincy's first question. "About twelve weeks. You see, besides breaking my leg I cracked my knee pan an' that's made it wuss."
The bottom of the chaise is heaped with multifarious bandboxes and carpet- bags, and beneath the axle swings a leathern trunk dusty with yesterday's journey. Next appears a four-wheeled carryall, peopled with a round half-dozen of pretty girls, all drawn by a single horse, and driven by a single gentleman.
Don't you tech them hosses!" shouted the general utility man in alarm. "That off hoss is a new one an' he's mighty skittish, I can tell you. This mornin' when I was hookin' him up he nigh kicked the leg off o' me!" "Say, how are we going to get to the Hall?" came in ugly tones from Reff Ritter. He, with six other boys, was standing beside the carryall.
It is true that at times, after a long continued period of dry weather, the roads were passable for automobiles, at least as far as While-a-Way, but the weather had not recently been entirely dry. There had been a short period of cold rain and the roads were practically impassable, save for horses and carryalls. There was a carryall which went as far as St.
Father asked us what we could do for the place that had been so hospitable to us, and I remembered a box of plants in the carryall, that we had bought at a wayside nursery, for the flower beds in Charlestown. "Plant something!" I said, and father thought it was a good idea and took a little crimson rambler rose bush from the box.
