She had never been to the local drug-store, so the clerks would not know her, but if any of the Glenmore girls were there, she would buy some candy, and wait until another day to obtain the tonic. She drew a long breath when she saw, upon entering, that she was the only customer.
Dundee, meanwhile, had summoned all the clans which acknowledged his commission to assemble for an expedition into Athol. His exertions were strenuously seconded by Lochiel. The fiery crosses were sent again in all haste through Appin and Ardnamurchan, up Glenmore, and along Loch Leven. But the call was so unexpected, and the time allowed was so short, that the muster was not a very full one.
He had a very small provision against a rainy day, but he did little to increase it. He used to write as many articles and give as many "lectures," "talks," or "readings" every winter as would suffice to pay the year's expenses, and thereafter he refused additional invitations, and repaired to Glenmore as early in the spring as possible.
"Hooraw!" howled Valerie Dare, and no one could have decided which laughed the harder, the pung-load of boys, or the lively girls in the Glenmore sleigh. "Yo'-all behave like tomboys," commented Marcus. "Lor', but Mis' Marvin would 'a' been some s'prised ef she'd been here ter hear ye carry on."
"She's equal to pinning on a half-dozen extra bows if she chooses," Miss Fenler said, under her breath. Glenmore, once a private estate, looked like an old castle, and the dwellings that were its nearest neighbors were owned by old and wealthy residents.

I had joined the Glenmore in England; in the two years that had elapsed before my desertion at Montreal, what had the Glenmore done and where had she been? And thereat I took those landlubbers around the world with me. Buffeted by pounding seas and stung with flying spray, they fought a typhoon with me off the coast of Japan.
That Arabella was to stay, too, and that she thought they would have a finer time than we." "I wonder how they amused themselves," Dorothy said. "Glenmore would be so quiet with all the girls away." "And Miss Fenler would have all the time to watch them, with none of the other pupils to care for," responded Nancy. "Dorothy, Nancy! Come down so I can tell you something!" called Vera.
And we'd keep the county seat here as sure as sundown." "Considerin' a change?" "The folks over in Glenmore are the question will come to a vote this fall. The county seat belongs here, not away off there at Glenmore, seven miles from the railroad." "What's your chance?" "Not very heavy right now. We can out-vote them in town, but the country's with Glenmore, all on account of our notorious name.
Dorothy was tired with the long ride, and just as she was thinking that she could not bear much more of it, the brakeman shouted, "Glenmore! Glenmore!" and the two girls were glad enough to get out upon the platform. Glenmore, the village, was a lovely little country place, quiet, and evidently content with itself.
