"We'll get in at the station about noon," his father told him, "but we have to drive about five miles in a wagon or an auto to get to Grandma Bell's place. That is on the shore of Lake Sagatook."

"No, we don't live in the big house," said Russ, for the man had pointed toward the residence of Mr. Barker. "We live over at Lake Sagatook I mean we're visiting Grandma Bell and we came to see you.
Now and then the train passed through places where there were big trees growing. "Are they the woods?" asked Russ with much interest. "Yes," his father told him. "Maine has in it many woods, and there are big forests around Lake Sagatook where Grandma Bell lives. You must be careful not to get lost in them." "I'll be careful," promised Russ.
Grandma Bell's house was built on the edge of a patch of woods, with fields at the back and the lake to one side. There were some farms in that part of Maine, and about five miles from grandma's home was the village of Sagatook. It was a smaller place than Pineville. The barn was back of the house.
"We live over at Lake Sagatook that is, we don't zactly live there, but we're visiting Grandma Bell." "Oh, are you some of the little children staying at Mrs. Bell's house?" asked the gate-tender. "I heard she had company. I know her well, but I don't often get a chance to see her. So you're her company." "She's our grandma," explained Russ.
