Pretty soon he heard a merry treble voice piping out: "Is ze gockter tum to oo house?" and Lawrence saw little Martha toddling toward him. Little Martha was Mistress Dandridge's baby girl. The Dandridges lived a short way beyond the oak grove, and little Martha loved to visit Uncle Lawrence and Aunt Mary, as she called Lawrence and his wife.
"No, little one," said he, in a melancholy voice, "I wish I was." Then Martha wanted to know whether the doctor had brought his saddlebags, and when Lawrence answered in the affirmative a summer of sunshine seemed to come into the child's heart and burst out over her pretty face. "Oh, I know!" she cried, as she clapped her fat little hands. "Ze gockter has bwought oo a itty baby!"
Who told you about the about the the baby, eh?" "Mamma says ze gockter allers brings itty babies in his sagglebags. Do oo want a itty baby, Uncle Lawrence?" "Yes, Martha, I do," said he, kissing her, "and I want a little girl just like you." Now Martha had guessed at the event, and her guess was eminently correct.
