Altogether, Irene was in her most softened mood, and she had brought back to Sunnyside several old toys of her own which she had rooted out of a cupboard in the long-disused nursery. They would charm little Agnes; they had never had any fascination for her. She thrust the parcel into the child's hands. "They are for you," she said.
Irving was never a systematic collector of books, and his little library at Sunnyside might have disappointed those who would expect to see there rich shelves of choice editions, and a full array of all the favorite authors among whom such a writer would delight to revel.
Three years ago, when the steamer "Sunnyside" was wreck'd of a bitter icy night on the west bank here, Walter went out in his boat was the first man on hand with assistance made a way through the ice to shore, connected a line, perform'd work of first-class readiness, daring, danger, and saved numerous lives.
Two or three doctors came to see her. She had two trained nurses; bulletins were put up at the door; no one was allowed to come in. The girls who were staying with Mrs. Brett were strictly forbidden to have any communication with the infected house; Rosamund and Irene were equally forbidden to go near Sunnyside. But at last there came a day when there was a decided improvement.
And when she begins to go around with a lump in her throat, all I have to do is to threaten to return to Sunnyside, and she is frightened into a semblance of cheerfulness, from which you may judge that the summer there was anything but a success.
The captain's vanity was wonderful. Sunnyside needed a mistress he needed a wife, 'Lena was poor perhaps she liked him and if so there might be a wedding, after all.

The matter was settled by the appearance of a buyer for "Sunnyside," at a price that paid me a fair profit, and I made the sale subject to possession being given when the new house was completed. Within a stone's throw of "Sunnyside" was a plot of land, a little less than two acres in extent that we had always admired.
I am not going back to Sunnyside, for they would not accept me; but, at the same time, I do not feel at all a disgraced girl; and I should like the Merrimans to be friends with me, and I should still like sometimes to see Jane and Laura Everett, and some of the other girls not Lucy Merriman, for she is not in the least to my taste; but even she does not greatly matter now that I am no longer living in the house with her.
She had the best heart in the world and the biggest, but she had not the discernment to know that there were treasures even in Miller's Notch and Sunnyside, and, anyway "Isn't contentment, Mary, a thing that depends on something inside of us, rather than our surroundings?" She nodded, speculatively. "And I rather think my girl from Kettle will be contented anywhere. She's gone ahead fast here.
"I wonder why I am obeying you?" said Irene, slipping her hand inside Rosamund's. "Because I mean you to." "I wonder why I'm not hating you?" "Because if you did I should leave you." "I couldn't let you go. It seems to me the whole world is different since I got you. But do tell me, you are not very good yourself?" "I am not at all so good. Ask the people at Sunnyside what they think of me.
