Sawyer tackled him," and with a scornful laugh Mrs. Maxwell flounced out of the store. "Your wife's as bad as the rest on 'em, Hiram." "Yes, Obadiah; it seems to be whoopedemic, as the doctors say."

He did not confide his hopes to Aunt Ella, and gave her no inkling of the real reason for his trip to Europe.
