"Your Uncle's been asking for you, John," said the doctor, drawing on his gloves. "Can I go up and see him, sir?" John asked. "In a minute or two. Your mother'll call for you when he's ready.
Now we'll do just as I said, Charley; and your mother'll approve. We'll deposit the sacks and any other valuables, with the bank, after we've told the coroner; and we'll advertise for heirs. We'll use only enough of the funds to pay the doctor, and other expenses. By the way, did the poor fellow say anything else? Give any directions of any kind?" "No, sir.
"There, to be sure," said Aunt Lois, one day when our preparations were in full blast; "there comes Sam Lawson down the hill, limpsy as ever; now he'll have his doleful story to tell, and mother'll give him one of the turkeys." And so, of course, it fell out.
Twenty dollars to begin with " "I've ten dollars laid up, and I know mother'll say pass it right in," exclaimed Ford. It was hardly likely Mrs. Foster would express her assent precisely in that way, but Frank added: "I think I can promise five." "I mean to speak to Ham Morris and mother about it," said Dab. "All I wanted was to fix it about the twenty to start on."
No, Miranda, I'm going to have an eye on Dabney." "You're a dear, good fellow, anyway," said Miranda, "and I hope mother'll have the house all ready for us when we get back." "She will," replied Ham. "I shall hardly be easy till I see what she has done with it." "That's him!" Dab was standing by the ponies, in front of a store in the village.

"If mother'll let me I'll have to," said poor Cecily. "I won't let Mr. Campbell triumph over me. And I DO want to have as many names as Kitty has. And I DO want to help the poor little Korean children. But it will be simply dreadful. I don't know whether I hope mother will or not." I did not believe she would, but Aunt Janet sometimes could be depended on for the unexpected.
"Oh, no, father!" replied Julia, smiling. "There is nothing I desire less." "Mother'll get acquainted with the people at church," said Jewel, "and I know she'll love Mr. and Mrs. Reeves. They're grandpa's friends, mother." "Yes," remarked Mr. Evringham, busy with his dinner, "some of the best people in Bel-Air have gone over to this very strange religion of yours, Julia.
Looking round, still half-puzzled to believe such a wonderful thing, she saw a great many pleased faces, and heard Mrs Leigh say: "I think you have chosen very well, and I am glad Lilac will be Queen this year." It was, then, really true. "How pleased Mother'll be!" was her first thought; but her second was not so pleasant, for her eye fell on Agnetta.
