"Sent where, Miss Emma?" asked Anne. "Oh, away. Back where you came from," answered Emma. Anne ran away, happier than ever. Being sent away, then, was the "something else" that Miss Farlow said they must try if she were naughty and disobedient. "Back where she came from!" That meant to Miss Drayton and Pat.
WHO?" the recumbent beauty asked; and then: "Oh, JIMMY!" she faintly laughed, as if more for her own enlightenment than Anna's. The latter continued eagerly: "I understand from Mrs. Farlow that your sister was with you, and I ventured to come up because I wanted to ask you when I should have a chance of finding her." Mrs. McTarvie-Birch threw back her head with a long stare.
Look at the labourers' cottages I've built, an' the plots of land I've given them. Aren't they good! Didn't I put up the best part of the money to build the new school because the old one was lettin' in the wind an' rain?" Henry's knowledge of sociology was not sufficient to enable him to cope with these arguments ... there was no Gilbert Farlow at his elbow to prompt him ... and so he collapsed.
And he do say if the little girl don't come he'll scream till night." "Why doesn't his mother punish him?" asked Miss Farlow. "Punish him! Punish Dunlop!" exclaimed Martha, in amazement. "Oh, well! the child's ill. I suppose I must let her go," Miss Farlow consented reluctantly.
We must make up our minds what we are going to do." Rather sulkily, Henry turned back, and went over to the fireplace, where he leaned against the mantelpiece, and began to fidget with his watch chain. "I don't see what there is for you to do," he said. "It's an affair for Miss Farlow and Jimmy to settle between them. Your brother has sown his wild oats now, and he'll be steady enough."
Roger Carey and Gilbert Farlow met him at Euston. "Hilloa, Quinny!" Gilbert said, "I've been made a dramatic critic, and I'm to do my first play to-night!" "Hurray!" he answered, and turned to greet Roger. "We've bagged a taxi," Gilbert went on. "The driver looks cheeky ... that's why we hired him. We'll give him a tuppenny tip and then we'll give him in charge!..."
She always called each girl by her full name. "You knew that it was naughty, did you not?" "I did not mean to be naughty," said Anne, penitently. "I just laughed at myself." "Laughed at yourself?" Miss Farlow was puzzled. "I was thinking," Anne explained. "My eyes were half-shut and it was the way the light was shining I could see us all from our chins down in the shiny desk.
I feel their ghosts about me, not the alarming sort of spook, but friendly, sympathetic ghosts, and I imagine them saying to me, 'Sergeant Farlow, you've got to live up to us! I've not told any one else about this, because I'm afraid of being called a sloppy ass ... and perhaps it is sloppy ... but you'll understand what I feel, so I don't mind telling you.
Before dinner let's write some little letters really we ought to let your other friends know that we've found you." "Bully Mrs. Collins," said Pat. "And poor Miss Farlow," added Miss Drayton. "Don't forget our friend 'Lop," suggested Mr. Patterson.
A visit from her would be a kindness to a sick child and an anxious mother. "It is Anne Lewis that is wanted," said Miss Farlow. "I don't know about letting her go. Visiting interferes with the daily tasks. I think it better not to " "Please'm," entreated the bearer of the note, hastening to ward off a refusal, "do, please'm, let the little girl come. He's that fractious he has us all wore out.
