There came a hum of wheels along the old roadway, and a carriage pulled up at the walk. There alighted quickly the figure of a young girl, tall, slender, round, full-chested, abounding in health and vigor. So much could be seen at a glance.

"I was sayin' to myself: 'Maybe ye'd come in before he went. Here's Father Cruse I been tellin' ye about and, Father, here's Mr. O'Day that's livin' wid us."
