At two o'clock Nathaniel was off to a distant field, and Theodora announced that she must walk to the village for a bit of "erranding." She wanted Priscilla to join her, thinking it would please the girl, but Priscilla shook her head and pleaded a weariness that was more mental than physical.
It had all been so exactly to Priscilla's dramatic taste that she with difficulty restrained herself from calling at the White Fish. There was a good hour to her credit when the erranding was finished and the time needed for the home run set aside, so to the little cabin, built beside the schoolhouse, she went with heavily loaded arms and an astonishingly light heart.
One day, with a hint of spring in the air, he reached out a lean hand toward the window near which Jean had placed him, and said: "Woman, are you here?" "Jean's gone erranding." The old mother-word attracted Glenn's attention. "Eh?" he questioned. "To the village. I'm waiting until she comes back. Can I do anything for you, sir?" "No. Is is it a sunny day?" "Glorious.
And at two o'clock in the afternoon Priscilla, from the kitchen door, saw Jerry-Jo paddling his canoe in still, Indian fashion around Lone Tree Island. Theodora was off erranding, and Nathaniel, as far as human knowledge went, was in some distant field; he had started off directly after dinner. Priscilla was ready for her adventure.
She had been nervous and overwrought; it wasn't so bad as they had thought! "I want you to go erranding," she said to Priscilla soon after the midday meal and by way of propitiation. "It's one by the clock now. Given an hour to go, another to return, and a half hour for the buying, you should be back by four at the latest."
Charles Gardiner West asserted that he had not a thing in all this world to do, and that erranding was only another way of taking a walk, when you came to think of it. She was frankly glad of his company; to be otherwise was to be fantastic; and now as they strolled she led him to talk of his work, which was never difficult.
