She'd rather we thought her hard than to let us see her pain." Martin stared. "You mean Nancy?" he asked. "No. Nan, bless her, cannot disguise herself, but Joan can! Joan will suffer through her strength." The period, always a dangerous one, the year following school life, became Doris's great concern while the school time progressed in orderly fashion under Miss Phillips's guidance.
Jane saw much amiss with her darling sister at the first glance, but hoped that the change, and Dr. Phillips's advice, which he had said would be at her service, and her own society, would benefit Elsie greatly. Elsie did not muster courage to tell Jane of the incident of the railway journey till they had retired for the night.
It does me good, as I walk towards the street of my daily avocation, on some fine May morning, to meet him marching in a quite opposite direction, with a jolly handsome presence, and shining sanguine face, that indicates some purchase in his eye a Claude or a Hobbima for much of his enviable leisure is consumed at Christie's, and Phillips's or where not, to pick up pictures, and such gauds.
Then she breathed, "Go!" and shoved him forward fiercely. It was Irving Francis's cry of rage as he rushed upon them which aroused Norma Berwynd from her dream, from her intoxication. She saw him towering at Phillips's back, and with a scream she tried to save the latter.

"And you have been figuring away in Melbourne, Dr. Grant," said Emily she could not bear any aspersion to be cast on her friend, Brandon "and then you brought Aunt Harriett away; so you leave no one with poor mamma but Alice.

Nothing was said about the letter Francis had received, and Jane and he seemed desirous to banish it from their memory.
With the end of June came the close of the term and the close of Miss Stacy's rule in Avonlea school. Anne and Diana walked home that evening feeling very sober indeed. Red eyes and damp handkerchiefs bore convincing testimony to the fact that Miss Stacy's farewell words must have been quite as touching as Mr. Phillips's had been under similar circumstances three years before.
