"I always feel as though I ought to shout to a foreigner," she had confessed to Hannah, "and in order not to do that, I just have to keep still." Catherine, who had felt a little rebuffed by Frieda's chilly manner at the station, and Hannah, not quite sure what the present mood might indicate, were both willing to leave to Polly the rôle she had undertaken.
The prospect before her was not wholly pleasant. Hannah had spent so much energy in singing the praises of Dexter College, Alice Prescott and Catherine Smith, that Frieda's desire to see them was distinctly modified by a jealous feeling that such perfections must be somewhat tiresome.

The greater the pity, therefore, that there was no one to counsel him to give America more time with my sister. She attended the night school; she was fond of reading.

"I want to go and see Frieda's mother." "Why, what an idea!" exclaimed the teacher in surprise. "But do you think she knows where her daughter is?" "I think she must know something.
