She was reticent as to her impressions of the New York seminary, but seemed extremely glad to be home, notwithstanding the fact that Nat had apparently contracted no disturbing alliances with the other belles of our village. And Roland remained true a reliable second string to Josie's bow.
After Josie had copied the contents of the two important communications she sealed them neatly and placed them with the rest of the mail on the master's desk, carefully mixing the letters so that the two which had been tampered with did not lie together. After that she redoubled her efforts towards cleaning the kitchen. Into every crack and corner went Josie's broom and scrubbing brush.

"And what about Tom Linnet?" she asked. "Chief Farnum is to arrest him to-night," said Josie.
She is seventeen, and she doesn't take the slightest interest in coming out.
