How could you how could you, Stanley? 'It was a mistake, altogether; I'm sorry, but I could not tell there was such a devil on the earth. 'Yes, I told you so. He has frightened you' said Rachel. 'He has, maybe.
'But you must not go, Rachel you must stay and keep me company you must, indeed, Radie, said Dorcas. 'So I will, she answered; 'but I must send a line to old Tamar; and I promised Dolly to go down to her to-night, if that darling little boy should be worse I am very unhappy about him. 'And is he in danger, the handsome little fellow? said Dorcas. 'Very great danger, I fear, said Rachel.
