But my thoughts went back afterwards, more than once, to the former conversation; and I wondered what it was about me that made Dr. Sandford liken me to Egyptian glass. It was settled that I should wait a day or two in New York to get my wardrobe arranged, and then begin my school experience. But when we got to New York, we found Mrs. Sandford's sister so ill as to claim her whole time.
Sandford what I felt, nor confess to what I thought of my father's action. I had the greatest struggle with myself not to give way and cry. I was very weak bodily, but I know I stood still and did not shed a tear; till I felt Dr. Sandford's hands take hold of me. They put me gently back in the chair from which I had risen. "What is the matter, Daisy?" he said.
A cold look it was, but Daisy's soft eye never changed. "Mamma," said she, whisperingly, "won't you kiss me?" Mrs. Randolph stooped instantly, and gave the kiss; it could not be refused, and was fully given; but then she immediately took Doctor Sandford's arm, and went out of the house. The Captain reverently bent over Daisy's little hand, and followed her.
"Sorry to disturb you, Ma'am, especially as Mr. Sandford isn't at home; but duty is duty, and must be 'tended to. My orders is, to 'tach the furnitur', and stay till I git a receipter." Mrs. Sandford's reply was inaudible. The voice proceeded: "Can't help it, Ma'am. Won't be back to-night, won't he? Bad, cert'in. But duty is duty, as I said afore.
The summer blue was very clear overhead; the stillness of the place very deep; insects, birds, a flutter of leaves, and the grating of Dr. Sandford's boot upon a stone, all the sound that could be heard. "Why, you are warm, as well as tired, Daisy," he said, coming up to my rock at last. "It is warm," I answered. "Warm?" said he. "Look here, Daisy!" "Well, what in the world is that?"
"I have no home," said Peter, and he gave her an outline of his history; "if, therefore, you can accommodate me I shall be very glad to remain here." Soon after this, Mrs Sandford's daughter Susan entered the room.
"Why, there was a person here a connexion of Mrs. Sandford's that set up a Sunday school in the woods; and Daisy went to it for a month or two, before I thought anything about it, or about him. Then I found she was beginning to ask questions, and I took her away." "Is asking questions generally considered a sign of danger?" said Gary McFarlane.
Do you really try to give thanks everywhere, and for all things, as the word says?" "I do not try, papa I like to do it." "Do you give thanks for everything?" "I think I do, papa; for everything that gives me pleasure." "For Mrs. Sandford's invitation to-day, for instance?" "O yes, papa," said Daisy smiling. He brought the little head down within reach of his lips and kissed it a good many times.
