So Gillian returned home, communicating the intelligence with some excitement that she had discovered that Valetta's schoolmate, Maura White, was none other than the daughter of her father's old fellow- soldier, whose death shocked her greatly, and she requested to go and call on Mrs. White as soon as she could learn her abode.
'I don't know whether the aunts will ever let us make a mess, said Gillian; 'they don't look like it. At which Valetta's face puckered up in the way only too familiar to her friends. 'Come, don't be silly, Val. You won't have much time, you know; you will go to school, and get some friends to play with, and not want to make messes here. 'I hate friends! 'Oh, Val!
She was thinking of Valetta's notion that she wanted to 'make up stories of them, and therefore she said it in a manner which conveyed that she had a good deal to complain of, if she would, though really she would have been a good deal puzzled to produce a grievance that a man like Uncle Reginald would understand, though she had plenty for sympathy like Constance's.
So she only said, 'No, I'm not hurt, though it is a wonder; and off she walked to bolt herself into her own room again, there to brood on Valetta's speech. It worked up into a very telling and pathetic history for Constance's sympathizing ears on Sunday, especially as it turned out to be one of the things not reported to mamma.
