Was there, indeed, a Wolf? When he reached Huntersfield, and the dogs barked, he had feared for the moment discovery. He was saved, however, by the friendly silence which followed that first note of alarm. The dogs knew him and followed him with wagging tails as he skirted the lawn and came at last to the gate which had closed a few minutes before on Dalton's car.
I think this place is heavenly." Mary laughed. "It is just a plain farmhouse. If you want the show places you should go to Huntersfield and King's Crest " "I want just this. Do you know I am almost afraid to go to sleep for fear I shall wake up and find it a dream " A little later, she asked, "Are those apples in the orchard ripe?" "Yes." "May I have one?"
Beyond that the Flippins had no family tree. Mary had seen the family tree at Huntersfield. It was rooted in aristocratic soil. There were Huguenot branches and Royalist branches D'Aubignes and Moncures, Peytons and Carys, Randolphs and Lees. And to match every name there was more than one portrait on the walls of Huntersfield.
"I know," said Mary, with the sudden realization of how her act had affected others, "I know. That's the only thing I am sorry about. But I don't believe the Judge would be so silly as to let anything I did make any difference about you " "Where are you going to live?" For the first time Mary's air of assurance left her. "He is hoping his grandfather will want us at Huntersfield "
There came to Huntersfield the next morning at about the same moment, Kemp in his little car with a small parcel for Becky, and Calvin with a big box from the express office. Becky was in her room at breakfast when Calvin brought the boxes up to her. It was a sunshiny morning, and the Judge had gone a-fishing with Mr. Flippin.
He had swept Becky along on a rushing tide. He had courted the Judge, and the Judge had pressed upon him invitation after invitation. Day and night the big motor had flashed up to Huntersfield, bringing Dalton to some tryst with Becky, or carrying her forth to some gay adventure. Her world was rose-colored. She had not dreamed of life like this.
