She could not have remained in New York without repaying the money she owed to Trenor; to acquit herself of that odious debt she might even have faced a marriage with Rosedale; but the accident of placing the Atlantic between herself and her obligations made them dwindle out of sight as if they had been milestones and she had travelled past them.
Freddie played with his fire engine to his heart's content, and, though he managed to get pretty wet himself, no one else suffered much. And, a few days before Frank was to go back to his guardian Mr. Bobbsey gave the children another treat. They were taken to a nice moving picture show at Rosedale where the circus had been.
Have a good time at the circus." "We will, papa!" chorused the Bobbsey twins. Uncle Daniel readily promised to take the whole family to the circus. Rosedale, where the show would be held, in the big tents, was not far from Meadow Brook. "I'll just hitch up the team to the big wagon," said the farmer, "put plenty of soft straw in the bottom, and we'll go over in style.
Rosedale suppressed a low whistle of surprise. "Come off you ain't serious, are you?" "Perfectly serious. I'm obliged to work for my living." "But I understood I thought you were with Norma Hatch." "You heard I had gone to her as her secretary?" "Something of the kind, I believe." He leaned forward to refill her cup.
"Oh, Lily, do look at this diamond pendant it's as big as a dinner-plate! Who can have given it?" Miss Farish bent short-sightedly over the accompanying card. "MR. SIMON ROSEDALE. What, that horrid man? Oh, yes I remember he's a friend of Jack's, and I suppose cousin Grace had to ask him here today; but she must rather hate having to let Gwen accept such a present from him." Lily smiled.
More and more, with every fresh mischance befalling her, did the pursuing furies seem to take the shape of Bertha Dorset; and close at hand, safely locked among her papers, lay the means of ending their pursuit. The temptation, which her scorn of Rosedale had once enabled her to reject, now insistently returned upon her; and how much strength was left her to oppose it?
"I've told you I don't understand but if I owe you money you shall be paid " Trenor's face darkened to rage: her recoil of abhorrence had called out the primitive man. "Ah you'll borrow from Selden or Rosedale and take your chances of fooling them as you've fooled me! Unless unless you've settled your other scores already and I'm the only one left out in the cold!"
"That Greiner house, now a typical rung in the social ladder! The man who built it came from a MILIEU where all the dishes are put on the table at once. His facade is a complete architectural meal; if he had omitted a style his friends might have thought the money had given out. Not a bad purchase for Rosedale, though: attracts attention, and awes the Western sight-seer.
Atterbury not only made no further objection, but acknowledged the urgent necessity of the mother's presence in the North. The idle life of Rosedale had grown unbearably irksome to Merry, too. "I feel as if I were a rebel," she confided to Mrs. Sprague in the evening talks, when the piano sounded and the young people were making the hours pass in gayety.
"Yes, I heard there was one showing around here," the man went on, "and I'd like to find it." "There was a circus over at Rosedale yesterday," spoke Bert, "but it has traveled on by this time.
