It was Athol who promptly turned a few handsprings behind their backs and Archie who rolled over upon the grass chortling. "Don't be alarmed! Don't be alarmed, my good man. Kilton will be delighted to minister to her comfort. Are you too nervous to ride to the rear entrance, Miss Ashby?" for during the few words spoken Mr.
Kilton had been quietly trying to purchase Leslie Manor through agents in Richmond, for a good bit of inside information had come to them regarding the manner in which matters were shaping there, and their pride in the community, and in Warren County, shrank from some possible crisis which would bring upon it an unpleasant notoriety. In one sense the girls in Leslie Manor were well cared for.
"Yes, sir. I'll remember, sir. And thank you a whole lot, sir, for letting me phone. I'll hold my jaw I mean I won't say a single word." "A pretty state of things, I'll be bound," stormed Dr. Kilton when Athol had gone. "Why that woman " he did not complete his sentence. "I wish she would sell out and go to live in Jericho, or some other remote place!" cried Mrs. Kilton, petulantly.
I'll blow up if you don't say yes, honest, I shall. The Doctor won't let me? You bet he will. He and Mrs. Kilton are right here beside me and almost dancing up and down. They're peaches."

Its church has been rebuilt, but retains a good Perp. font, and some small brasses on the S. wall of the chancel. Two communion chalices belonging to the church date from 1514 and 1572 respectively.
One of her pupil's horses had escaped during the night and she was phoning in every direction in her endeavors to find it. It was Miss Ashby's horse and he might have made his way as far as the hall." "No, there was no stray animal there, but Dr. Kilton would have a thorough search made in their neighborhood." But Dr. Kilton was a far cry from being a fool.
What could it all mean? In August the cat popped out of the bag. Dr. and Mrs. Kilton moved in. A new and imposing sign appeared upon the handsome iron grill-work of the entrance gate, the gold letters reading: "The Wilder-Kilton Co-Educational Academy!" Wilder had been Mrs. Kilton's maiden name.
She was capable of almost any insubordination, and rising at dawn and riding off somewhere was merely a fresh demonstration of it." That Miss Woodhull was merely "whistling to keep her courage up" all well knew. But sunset failed to bring the runaway, and Kilton Hall knew of this fact right speedily.
