They lived in Moreville, a thriving New England town, and Bob's father was employed in a large woolen mill in the place. Bob attended the local school, and he was a sort of leader among a certain class of boys.
But it only went up over the out-houses, dodged backwards and forwards two or three times, and finally flopped down with us into a swamp." "And that balloon was the A. C.?" suggested Mr. Johnson. "And, Enos, don't send up your balloon until the proper time. Don't anticipate the programme, or the performance will be spoiled."
The long "arm" of land now stretched out as if to welcome the returning voyagers, and the sloop ran in beside the little pier just as Captain Enos and Jimmie Starkweather came down the beach. "Been watching your craft since sunup," declared Uncle Enos. "What's kept you in Boston so long, Starkweather? We began to worry about you, John, and feared some ill news of our little maid."

Abel, you and Enos, and Pauline and Eunice might fix matters so that we could all take the place in partnership, and pass the summer together, living a true and beautiful life in the bosom of Nature.
