"I suppose you have friends to whom you are going in Goldite," he said, " or at least there's someone you know." "Yes," she answered, "my brother." Van looked at her in his quizzical way, observing: "I don't believe I know him." Her glance was almost one of laughter. "Why, how can you tell? You don't even know his name." She paused, then added quietly: "It's Glenmore Kent."
Marvin well knew that twenty lively girls would be likely to be a bit too gay for the steady-going inhabitants of the town of Glenmore, while the school must keep up its reputation for being cheerful, but surely not noisy nor flighty! The day for the first sleigh-ride dawned clear and cold, and Marcus informed Judy that it was cold enough "ter freeze de bronze statoo down in de square."
Marvin, and we are to be excused for the last two weeks at Glenmore, and away we'll speed toward Merrivale and home." "Oh, I am so glad!" Nancy cried as she pressed Dorothy closer. "And that isn't all," said Dorothy, "for hear this: "I'm sure, dear, that you and Nancy will be delighted to know that, after a short stay at the Stone House, we shall go to Foam Ridge for the summer.
It was the second day of her service at Glenmore that Tessie overheard her young mistress use the name "Marcia" when calling over the telephone. "Marcia! Might it be Marcia Osborne!" Tessie almost gasped. Then when she heard further a "good-bye, and Jacqueline hoped they would all have a lovely trip west," Tessie breathed freely.
"No, I'm not an editor," Morgan repeated, speculatively, as if he saw possibilities of distinction in that road. "Without the press, we are a community disarmed in the midst of our enemies," said the judge. "Glenmore will overwhelm us and rob us of our rights, without a champion whose voice is as the voice of a thousand men."
I'll have to leave this man's town; I can't stand the pressure." "A man with a little nerve ought to swallow his present losses for his future gains," Morgan said, beginning to grow tired of this whining. "If I could see any future gains comin' my way I'd gamble on them with any man," Conboy returned with some spirit. "I'm goin' over to Glenmore this afternoon and see what it looks like there.
He made up his mind to go to Starlight himself to be on hand when Van Buren should arrive. With Glenmore ill, or injured, in his bed, the case might offer simple handling, Further neglect of Glenmore might, indeed, be fatal, at a juncture so delicate. From every possible viewpoint the thing to do was to intercept Van Buren.
Just as they were leaving the house, the postman brought a letter for Dorothy that had been remailed from Glenmore, and she took it with her to read, if there was an opportunity. The ride out from the city over fine roads, and along beautiful avenues, was delightful, and the jolly little party reached "Vane Villa," earlier than they had thought possible.
It was a jolly party that took the train for Glenmore on Saturday morning. Rob had taken them to the station, bought a a box of candy for each, and waited until the last moment to leave the train. "If Miss Fenler has been watching Patricia this week she has been busy," said Elf, when they had settled themselves for the long ride. "She could easily watch Arabella, she is so slow," Dorothy said.
It was an odd combination that "Glenmore," one of the best of schools for girls in the country, modern in every respect, and absolutely "up-to-date," should be situated in a town that was quaint, and picturesque, with inhabitants as fanciful, and superstitious as one would find if he had traveled back a century.
