Montez, messieurs!" cried the Chef de Gare; "last train for Paris until Wednesday! All aboard!" and he slammed and locked the doors, while the engineer, leaning impatiently from his cab, looked back along the line of cars and blew his whistle warningly. "Good-by, Dorrie!" cried Jack. "Good-by, my darling Jack! Be careful; you will, won't you?"
She nodded and whispered: "I've come as I promised to, Aunt Dorrie. It it wasn't my chance! Not my big chance, anyhow, but I had to find out, dearie." "My little girl!"
Stanley, approaching from the opposite direction. She hurried forward to greet him. "I am more than glad to see you, Phillip," she said, as she slipped her hand, girl fashion, into his, as it hung by his side. "Come and walk with me. I want to talk to you." "I am on my way to Dorrie," he replied.
Doris assumed authority and Joan submitted sweetly. "Yes, Aunt Dorrie, and you and I will scour these hills and get acquainted with our people and have trips abroad, perhaps. It is simply splendid the stretch on ahead." The sun-lighted room was still radiant with the decorations of Nancy's wedding. Tall jars of roses woodbine and "rhoderdeners," as old Jed called them, were everywhere.
Dorothy raised her head with an icy smile. "Is it honourable to confess such a thing?" she asked, in steady tones. "But but you knew it, for you saw me " he stammered. "I did not!" she flashed out, and walked straight into the house. "Dorrie!" cried her brother as she swept by him, "what do you think? Lorraine de Nesville is coming this evening!"
Lawrence watched her wrap her charge carefully in a shawl, and fetch milk from the dresser, and coax till Dorrie turned her small head, heavy with the cares of neglected babyhood, sideways on the old plaid maud and began to suck.
"I'm very sorry," she said, "but it couldn't have been so awful bad to get well so quickly, could it?" "It is all passed now, dearie, and we are glad that no one's good time was spoiled, aren't we?" Katherine observed and hastening to change the subject. "Indeed, we are. It was such a happy time!" sighed Dorrie, in a tone of supreme content. "I've dreamed and dreamed of it.
I shall only let in, hereafter, that part of it that I choose. When I saw a man looking at me, Aunt Dorrie, where before I had been seeing a doctor, there was nothing to do but scamper. He hadn't the least idea what was happening he saw only the bag of bones that he had rescued, but I wasn't going to let him run any risks. You see, I've learned more than some girls."
And she went home and that very night that very night, Aunt Dorrie, she looked in a room where she heard a funny noise and she saw a live doll! And while she was looking she saw a tall big lady bring in another. You see, when The Rock gets alive, everything is alive and Mary had forgot that and so the dolls were were babies. Nancy believes that, but I tried it on Nancy's dolls and it isn't true!"
Tweksbury, Uncle David, and I played matchmakers with a vengeance but we bungled frightfully, and then Clive Cameron wedged his big body in between Nancy and several young men who might have made trouble, and and " Doris thought for an illuminating word. Then "whistled Ken on!" "Why, that's awfully funny, Aunt Dorrie I rather imagined that Ken plunged!"
