Oh, crows," interpreted Win. "Nice custom! Mother, look at the heaps of rocks exposed by the tide." "There's more this side," said their guide, turning a corner of the rampart with Roger close at his heels. The rest were about to follow when suddenly Mrs. Thayne gave an exclamation. "Listen!" she said. "That must be a skylark."

Delight and Leslie had got letters from the Josselyns and Dakie Thayne. There was news in them such as thrills always the half-comprehending sympathies of girlhood. Leslie's vague suggestion of romance had become fulfillment. Dakie Thayne was wild with rejoicing that dear old Noll was to marry Sue.

Dakie Thayne caught sight of the two white leaders, recognized them, and flew across to the hotel. "Stop!" cried he. At the same instant a figure moved hastily away from behind Miss Craydocke's blinds. It was a mercy that the wagon had driven around to the front hall door. A mercy in one way; but the misfortune was that the supper-party within knew nothing of it.

Very best nighties because of looking pretty for spooks. Breakfast any old hour." Screaming with delight, Edith ran to find Estelle, Frances for her mother. "But I don't know that I want you to sleep in a room that has the reputation of being haunted, Edith," protested Estelle. "Will Mrs. Thayne permit Frances to go?" "Oh, Sister, there's some joke about it," pleaded Edith.

Dakie Thayne was there, too; but that was quite natural for a boy. They got their outside seats by it, scrambling up before the horses were put to, and sitting there while the hostlers smiled at each other over their work.

They've only got just so much time to stay; and if we don't contrive a holiday for them before it's over, why, there's the 'Inasmuch, that's all." Dakie Thayne came to the door to fetch Leslie and the curtain.

Dakie Thayne was stage-manager and curtain-puller; Sin Saxon and Frank Scherman represented the audience, with clapping and stamping, and laughter that suspended both; making as nearly the noise of two hundred as two could: this being an essential part of the rehearsal in respect to the untried nerves of the débutant, which might easily be a little uncertain.

Green's garret, Leslie Goldthwaite and Dakie Thayne, with a third party never before introduced upon the stage, had a private practising; and at tea-time, when the great hall was cleared, they got up there with Sin Saxon and Frank Scherman, locked the doors, and in costume, with regular accompaniment of bell and curtain, the performance was repeated.

Helier's. If he really has been disobedient and played truant again into the bargain, I shall ask Mr. Fisher to punish him." "Oh, Mother," said Frances, "Roger wouldn't deliberately frighten us, especially when he's been so upset over Win." "But where is he?" said Mrs. Thayne again. "Thank goodness! Here's Mr. Fisher." She hurried down to intercept the tutor at the door.

They wanted Leslie, to tell and ask her half a hundred things about the projected tableaux. If it had only been Miss Craydocke and the Josselyns sitting together, with Dakie Thayne, how would that have concerned them, the later comers? It would only have been a bit of "the pines" preoccupied: they would have found a place for themselves, and gone on with their own chatter.
