I've read that, too," said Hannah, "but I didn't recognize it just at first. I should think, if it is to be your motto, you'd have to change the gender and make it 'laeta, Aunt Clara." Miss Lyndesay laughed. "I'm glad you both know the story. I expected Hannah to, but hardly Frieda. Did you read it all by yourself, dear?" "Yes," answered Frieda proudly.
After luncheon, Karl went out to send cablegrams, and Miss Lyndesay took the girls up to the attractive white and green room which had been assigned to her. "Can't you come out home with us?" asked Hannah wistfully. "I know Mamma would love to have you.
"It's bigger than I thought it would be," answered Frieda. "Hannah said it was a Dorf. I thought there would be only two or three houses, and many little huts all close together, but we passed many houses." "It is a good thing for you to see a New England village," said Miss Lyndesay, "as part of the education you came for.
She is so obstinate she wouldn't learn English if she were near any one who could talk anything she would recognize for German. What most of the girls at college talk for that, she wouldn't know from Choctaw. "Lots of love to the dear doctors, and for yourself bushels and quarts and pecks. I had a card from Miss Lyndesay from the Isle of Wight yesterday.
They spent a cozy half hour chatting in German or English, as the spirit or their respective inabilities moved them, and when Karl arrived to escort them to the station, they were in a blithe mood, which even the ordeal of parting from Miss Lyndesay did not shake.
"Only once. When I met Miss Lyndesay in the churchyard," said Frieda, dwelling on the memory. "No wonder!" said Karl. "I would salaam before her, myself." "So would I!" agreed Hannah. "But Frieda, then, if you are no longer a child, at last you have a will?" Frieda nodded her head emphatically. "Now," she said, "I have a will."
It stopped at the Common and its two passengers almost fell into the arms that waited to receive them. "O-eeeeee!" sighed Hannah, getting as close to Miss Lyndesay as she could on one side, while Frieda did the same on the other with a similar ejaculation. "Two blue girls this time!" exclaimed Miss Lyndesay.
"Let us make a compact. For the honor of Germany, we will be scrupulously careful of what we say about America, but sometimes, all by ourselves, we can say just what we feel like saying." Karl took her hand solemnly. "It's a bargain, and you are a Cor-r-rker-r-r!" Clara Lyndesay stood in the doorway of her Brookmeadow house, listening for the coming trolley.
"I suppose you mean about sorrows making you appreciate blessings and so on," pouted Hannah. "But I don't believe it. I know I could be happy all the time, if I could have all the things I want just when I want them!" Miss Lyndesay did not smile. "Perhaps you could!" she said slowly. "You will never have a chance to prove it. It's not within the limits of possibility.
Miss Lyndesay seconded the motion, and, taking candles, the three mounted into the garret, sought out the old trunk and brought the beautiful doll down stairs. There, by the fire, they laid her gently down on a soft blanket in the pretty bed which was exactly the right size.
