I'll know all about Miss Telltale soon." And after that Nancy's worst fears were realized by the news that Jennie Bruce brought her. Jennie had managed to see and have a private interview with Bob Endress. "And of course, he's managed to do it," grumbled Jennie. "Done what? Oh! done what?" cried Nancy, clasping her hands. "Well, Cora wormed something out of him.
Nancy never did this without remembering her adventures before she came to Pinewood Hall the occasion when she had helped save Bob Endress from drowning. Bob was now a lordly senior at Dr. Dudley's Academy. Nancy had only seen him flashing past the girls' boathouse in the Academy eight. Bob was stroke of his school's first crew. Nancy often wondered if he had learned to swim yet.
The former's striking costume marked her out, too, and after the grand march, she was sought out by Bob Endress. "Oh, I'm afraid I don't dance well enough, Mr. Endress," the girl said in a whisper, and blushing deeply. "You do everything well, I believe," declared he. "Now, don't disappoint me. I've been trying ever since that night I found you and your chum in the river, to get a talk with you.
Bob Endress, however, had seemed to Nancy to be a particularly nice boy. And they had had a secret understanding together before Grace and Cora had found out about Higbee School. Nancy said nothing to Jennie about it; but she wondered if Bob felt as the Montgomery clique did about her that she was a mere nobody and was really beneath his notice.
"You know well enough," snapped Cora. "I do not," declared Nancy. "I have done nothing." "Oh, no! Just walking off with Bob Endress and keeping him all the afternoon. Why, Grace is his cousin and she'll never forgive you." It was on the tip of Nancy's tongue to say she didn't care; but instead she remained silent. "I had the hardest work to coax her to come to-night," went on Cora.
Therefore she was able, if she wished, to enter more fully into the social gayeties of her classmates. And after the very successful masque on Thanksgiving Eve, she could not escape Bob Endress altogether. He was a nice boy, and Nancy liked him. Besides, there were two topics that drew the two together.
Endress arose and made a long speech in defense of himself, referring to a number of local reasons and certain misunderstandings that influenced him to omit the publication of the plan. To this it was replied that the reasons given by him were not altogether satisfactory.
Bob, it seemed, had often spoken of the girl whose quick wit had saved him from the millrace almost two years before. "And you are in Grace Montgomery's class?" observed Mrs. Endress. "It is odd we have never heard Grace speak of you, Nancy. And where will you spend your summer?" Nancy told her how kind the Bruces were to invite her for the long vacation. "I hope we shall see you both," said Mrs.
