"I wish I could do some of them. I mean," she gathered herself up bravely to say, "I should like dearly to do anything for Amy; but I have thought it would be a good plan if I could to do something like that for the sake of earning; as Dot Ingraham does." "Do you not have quite enough money, my dear?" asked Miss Kirkbright, in her kindly direct way that could never hurt. "Not quite.
S. W. Ingraham, whose office is now on South Clark Street. He had been called there to perform a surgical operation, and being obliged to spend an hour or two in the hotel office before taking a return train, he became an interested listener to several stories told by a couple of drummers and myself. He finally told one or two which convinced us that we had struck an old-timer.
Ingraham had on a plain muslin cap, instead of a ribboned one such as she was used to wear; and Dot was in a black calico dress; they sat in the kitchen window together, ripping up some breadths of faded cloth that they were going to send to the dye-house. Ray was in the front room, looking over papers. Mrs.
For two hundred years after the discovery of the southern group the islands we had left behind us the northern group was still unknown to the world. Captain Ingraham, of Boston, found Nuka-hiva in 1791, and called the seven small islets the Washington Islands.
Yet when we read it in a written story, we call it the contrivance of the writer, the trick of the trade. Dearly beloved, the writer only catches, in such poor fashion as he may, the trick of the Finger, whose scripture is upon the stars. Marion Kent is received into the Ingraham home.

Mrs. Ingraham came down into the room where they were, at this moment, and Dot presently followed. They began to talk of their plans.
They went early, after dinner; so that the brightness might last them home again; and because the Newriches, in their afternoon drive, might be coming out from the city, perhaps, a little later, to look at their waistcoat-pocket plaything. Mrs. Ingraham turned away from the basement window with a long breath, as they drove off.
"You've got to begin with what there is, as the Pilgrim Fathers did." Ray Ingraham could have told them, if she had been there this Wednesday evening, how Dot had begun. Miss Ledwith said nothing about it, because she felt that it was an exceptional case.
Then Rodney shrugged his shoulders, and walked over and picked up his hat. "It might have been worse," he said, coming back, as Mr. Ingraham and the man who had held Sylvie's pony took the latter out of the shafts and led him to a post to fasten him, and then proceeded together, as well as they could, to lift the disabled phæton and roll it over to the blacksmith's shop to be set right.
What will you do with everything?" "We are going to store some of our furniture, and sell some. Dot Ingraham is to take my plants for me till we come back to Boston; then I shall have them in our rooms. I hope the gas won't kill them." Rodney Sherrett said nothing after the first greeting for some minutes. He only sat and listened, with a sober shadow in his handsome eyes.
