"I never approved of our boys going to that South African fracas. But it's over, and not likely anything of the kind will ever happen again. I think the world is getting more sensible. As for the Merediths, I've said many a time and I say it again, if Mr. Meredith had a wife all would be well." "He called twice at the Kirks' last week, so I am told," said Susan.
There is news of a fresh victory every day now." 30th August 1918 "The Merediths had a letter from Carl today. His wound was "only a slight one" but it was in his right eye and the sight is gone for ever! "'One eye is enough to watch bugs with, Carl writes cheerfully. And we know it might have been oh so much worse! If it had been both eyes!
"I'm sure that will be the most joyful way for us to spend the years; there is room and love in abundance for all; let's share them in the old castle together." The Merediths joined hands in delight at the suggestion. "A home with dear Aunt Janice! How delightful!"
Station her on the far side of grandmother, and let the men pass this way first!" The Merediths were late. As they advanced to pay their respects, Isabel maintained her composure. An observer, who had been told to watch, might have noticed that when Rowan held out his hand, she did not place hers in it; and that while she did not turn her face away from his face, her eyes never met his eyes.
The Merediths were awakened the next morning by sounds which told of the movements of troops, and all day long the regiments were marching to the river, and as fast as they could be ferried, were transferred to the Jersey side, the townspeople who, by choice or necessity, were left behind being helpless spectators meanwhile.
At Yorktown, too, where the village of about sixty houses supplied but the poorest and scantiest accommodations for both man and beast, he managed to have the custom-house assigned for his own use, and then placed all the rooms the Merediths needed at their disposal.
The Merediths waited in a group, until they returned to start to gather decorations. "The chain of happiness for others, as well as for ourselves, is really growing," she began, her eyes following the three figures in the distance. "Oh, Nora " Janey said, "let's always try to keep on finding hearts that need happiness."
The mustering of all the royal army, now swelled by reinforcements of three thousand troops hurriedly summoned from New York, compelled a rebilleting of the troops, and nine more officers were assigned by the quartermaster-general to the Franklin house, overcrowding it to such an extent as to end the possibility that it should longer shelter the Merediths.
Helpless to move, the Merediths sat on their coach while an officer, accompanied by a file of soldiers and half a dozen drummers, took station at the Town Hall. First a broadside was posted on the bulletin-board, and the drums beat the "parley" long and loudly.
I have really come to feel as if you were a sort of a younger sister of mine. I have done a very little for you in the way of education, and I have intended to do more. The reason I have been slow about it was for reasons. I have discussed your future with the Merediths a great many times.
