"We're too near the water, and this country, beautiful as it is, is not like our bright America." Dr. Parshefield suggested a trip to the South of France, but Alice declared that was impossible. "Something must be done now what shall it be?" was Aunt Ella's declaration and inquiry.
There came a sharp rap upon the door it was thrown open, and Alice entered. "Oh, Aunt Ella, Quincy is very sick. He is choked up so he can hardly breathe. I'm afraid it is the croup." "We must send for Dr. Parshefield at once. But who can go? Henry injured his foot to-day and cannot walk.
"Why didn't you wait long enough to see the effect of the blow?" "Oh, Auntie," and Alice burst into tears. "What shall I do?" "I know what I'm going to do. I shall send for Dr. Parshefield and have him give you a sleeping potion." The next day Alice began making preparations for her journey. Aunt Ella's arguments and appeals were in vain. "I must go," said Alice.
Parshefield. "I could not have done better myself." "It was so good of you, Harry," said Alice. "I shall never forget your kindness." Then she threw her arms about Aunt Ella's neck. "Oh, Auntie, if he had been taken from me, I could not have borne it."
Parshefield made frequent visits. Aunt Ella pressed the fatherless infant to her breast. "What shall you name him, Alice?" "There can be but one name for him. God sent us two little girls, but took them back again. We both wished for a son, and Heaven has sent one, but has taken the father from us." "And you will name him " "Quincy Adams Sawyer, Junior," was the answer. "It is his birthright."
