Lord Harrow's daughter should be the first.... No ... No. How foolish! Don, the spaniel, begins to whine and fret, to put his paws on the bulwarks and bark toward a spot on the shore. A boat is lowered; Don, the spaniel, leaps in they row, following the point of his nose, and the Poor Boy is found just in the nick of time.... But the other plan, which was not delightful, was best.
He went straight to Lord Harrow's house and walked with Joy for hours up and down between the glorious roses on the terrace. The path was wide. They could walk side by side without danger of touching each other. She was very grave that afternoon. So was he. It was hard that they should love each other so much and not be allowed to talk about it or hold hands.
The Poor Boy, privileged old friend that he was, entered without ringing, and started through the ground floor of the house, stopping at times to admire a mantel-piece, a ceiling, or a painting. Lord Harrow's new hothouses being in full blast, there were flowers everywhere, and great logs of birch roared and crackled in all the fireplaces.
Later in the evening my lines were several times assaulted vigorously, but each time with like result. The worst of the fighting occurred on General Harrow's and Morgan L. Smith's fronts, which formed the centre and right of the corps.
"I'd like to wring that Miss Harrow's neck! What right has she to accuse Nellie?" "No right at all, Tom. But one thing is certain, the ring must be missing. I don't think that the teacher had anything to do with taking it. They don't have that sort here." "Possibly not.
"She's changing into outdoor things. Do you mind waiting?" "How is she?" asked the Poor Boy eagerly. "Oh, she's white and tired after all she's been through, poor duck; don't let her overdo at first. Where are you going to take her?" "Aren't you coming with us?" Three pearls fell. "How you talk!" "But but " "Nonsense," exclaimed Lord Harrow's daughter.
Why should he, who had been born to the soil, struggle forth to alien ends as a sightless earthworm to the harrow's teeth? On his way in from the fields he stopped an instant at the gate of the barnyard to look at the red-and-white cow that was licking her little, tottering calf.
He could board Lord Harrow's great black yacht and be welcomed into the light and the warmth of the great satin-wood saloon with its open fireplace and its Steinway grand. Lord Harrow's daughter, that lovely girl, would minister to him, and Warinaru, the steward, would bring him hot grog in cut crystal, upon a heavy silver tray of George the First's time.
But the turned ankle would not do any work, and she could not get up. He heard her moan. And looked at her once more, his eyes round with wonder. "But I have just taken you to Lord Harrow's in a motor," he said; "and yet here you are and in pain." "I think I can walk," she said. "If you don't mind helping me a little." "Of course I don't mind," said the Poor Boy cautiously.
