If Grandma had seen her then, she could not have helped admitting that there was as much of Robert MacDonald in the lines of the girl's face as of the guileful Barbara Ballantree. No notice was taken of Barrie until half-past eight o'clock that night half-past eight being considered night in Mrs. MacDonald's house-hold.
Stopping just inside the threshold, he looked about for him, blinking in the strong light and shaking back the wet fur of his collar. It seemed as though every member of the house-hold except Leif were lounging along the benches, waiting for the evening meal. Eric leaned against one arm of his high-seat, talking jovially with Thorhall the steward, who had returned that morning from seal-hunting.
