"Will you?" she repeats, taking hold of one of my froggy hands, while her eyes shine with a soft and friendly urgency; "you know you always used to take my advice when we were little will you?" Somehow, at her words, a little warmth of comfortable reassurance steals about my heart. At home she always used to be right: perhaps she is right now perhaps I am wrong.
'Oh, I dare say Wilmet is as sorry as anybody, said Cherry rather querulously, for the needle point was pricking her again. 'And as to your dear old Froggy, continued Lance, 'she says he told her he did not in the least expect you back by this train, and if you did not come by it, he'll stay in town for the 8.50.
