He must do it to-night, and to-morrow we'll see the end of this tangle. Trust me, Eloise," I said, comfortingly. "But, Gail, I'm afraid Ferdinand will kill you if you get in his way." Eloise clung to my arm imploringly. "Six big Kiowas got fooled at that job. Do you think this thin streak of humanity would try it?" I asked, lightly. Eloise stood up beside me. "I must go away now," she said.
"And they hauled us over to their dirty old Justice of the Peace, and he told us he'd give us thirty days in jail if we was in the county to-morrow noon, and we don't know how far this county goes, either way!" "Fifty miles to St. Simon," Bill told them comfortingly. "You can make it, all right " "We can make it, hey? How're we going to make it, with our car layin' around all over your garage?"
"He'll be here any minute," she said instead, comfortingly. "There he is now!" Her quick ear had caught a step outside. Beryl, not Dale, opened the door and confronted them.
"But I want you to have it," he made grave reply. "You will stay here? Promise me!" "Very well," she assented miserably. He got up. "I shan't be gone long. Sit quite still till I come back!" He touched her dark head comfortingly and turned away.
"It is very provoking," said Lawrence, "I don't think I ever allowed myself to drop the reins before." "It doesn't make the slightest difference," said Annie, comfortingly. "This old horse knows the road perfectly well, and he doesn't need a bit of driving. He will take us home just as safely as if you held the reins, and now don't you try to get them, for you will only hurt yourself."
Martin had supposed them upstairs long before. He had come in at nine o'clock from the shed where he had wrestled with his craving and, by the help of God, had come out victorious once again. He had fallen asleep soon after and a vivid and strange dream had held him captive by its power. Sandy had come to him clearly, and comfortingly; had sat close to him and laid his hand in his.
Aagot simply said: "It was very kind of you to come with me; otherwise I should have been altogether alone." And Tidemand noticed that she tried to appear unconcerned. She smiled, but her eyes were moist. He, too, smiled and said comfortingly that he was glad she was going to leave all this mud and filth; now she was going to the country, to cleaner roads, to purer air.
By that time curiosity had overcome fear, and other cottage doors had opened. Mount Dunstan passed down the row and said a few words to each woman or man who looked out. Questions were asked anxiously and he answered them. That he was personally unafraid was comfortingly plain, and the mere sight of him was, on the whole, an unexplainable support.
He rolled himself over, so that his face was turned up to the sky. Under him the wet sand was soft, and it was comfortingly cool. The fire in his head died out. He could hear new sounds in the edge of the forest evening sounds.
"I shall miss you so dreadfully," sobbed Ruthy. "I shall not have any one to play with, that is, any one like you, and I shall miss you all the time." "But I am going to ask your mamma to let you go with me," Ruby said comfortingly. "I forgot to tell you, but I truly will. Do you suppose I would go away off to boarding-school without you, Ruthy Warren? You might know I would n't. Of course not.
