"My goodness! what are you doing down there, Aggie?" demanded Ruth. "And who's that with you!" "I I got up to get a peach, Ruthie," explained Agnes, rather stammeringly.

Vanderbarrack's, from thence to John Decoes, passing over to the west branch of the twelve mile creek, on the farm of Adam Brown, and continuing along the said stream to Lake Ontario.
