"So? And so soon? Talk about the telegraph spreadin' news! I'd back most any half dozen tongues in Bayport to spread more news, and add more trimmin' to it, in a day than the telegraph could do in a week. Especially if all the telegraph operators was like the one up at the depot. Well, Georgianna, when you goin' to leave?" "Leave? Leave where? What are you talkin' about?" "Leave here.
She knew me, too, and said good morning, and was I all right again and was my dress really as bad as it looked to be? I told her that Georgianna thought she could fix it, and if she couldn't, her sister could. She said that was nice, and then 'twas time for school to begin." "Did she say anything about me?" inquired Captain Cy when they were seated at the dinner table. "Oh, yes! I forgot.
The blunt message he had intrusted to Georgianna would, he believed, arouse Phoebe's indignation. She would not call again. And when he returned to Bos'n, it would be to take up the child's fight alone. If he lost that fight, or WHEN he lost it, he would close the Cy Whittaker place, and leave Bayport for good.
For a moment Mary Jane said nothing the doll was so like her dear, broken-to-pieces Marie Georgianna that she could hardly believe her eyes! She walked up close to the counter; looked hard at the doll and then exclaimed, "It is! It is, Daddah! It is a twin just as mother said it was! And is it for me to take home?" Mr.
"Mornin', Georgianna," said Captain Cy to his housekeeper as the latter unlocked the back door of the Whittaker house next morning. "I'm a little ahead of you this time." Miss Taylor, being Bayport born and bred, was an early riser.
"Oh, I must see the sea again!" cried Mary. "Well, don't talk that way! You will," Lydia said cheerfully. But Susan, seeing the shadow on the kind, plain face, wished that she had held her tongue. It was late in July that Georgianna Lancaster startled and shocked the whole boarding-house out of its mid-summer calm.
He's come back and he's who he says he is. You've seen him. He was here all day yesterday." "So Angie said, but I couldn't scarcely believe it. That toughy! Cap'n Whittaker, do you intend to hand over that poor little innocent thing to to such a man as THAT?" "No. There'll be no handin' over about it. But the odds are against us, and there's no reason why you should be in the rumpus, Georgianna.
It was pleasing to see Georgianna lay her face so softly on the infant's, and so gently rock her when her slumbers were disturbed. Mrs. Dudley's children listened to her story with great interest, and wished to do something for the family.
Oh, no, maybe not!" "And Heman!" chimed in Mr. Bangs. "And Heman! Would you ever believe HE'D change so all of a sudden? Bully old Whit! I can mention his name now without Ketury's landin' onto me like a snowslide. Whee! I say, wh-e-e-e!" He continued to say it; and Georgianna and Asaph said what amounted to the same thing. A change had come over our Bayport social atmosphere, a marvelous change.
You won't forget our cruises together when you are a big girl and off somewheres else, will you?" "I'll NEVER forget 'em. And I'm never going anywhere without you." It was after five as they entered the kitchen. "Anybody been here while I was out?" asked the captain of Georgianna. The housekeeper's eyes were red and swollen, and she hugged Bos'n as she helped her off with her jacket and hood.
