Kenton then said that she did not care, if the child was only going to behave sensibly at last, and she did believe she was. "Then it's all right" said the judge, and he took up the Tuskingum Intelligencer, lying till then unread in the excitements which had followed its arrival the day before, and began to read it. Mrs. Kenton sat dreamily watching him, with her hands fallen in her lap.
He wondered how he should justify to his wife the thing which he felt as accountable for having happened to him as if he could have prevented it. It would not have happened, of course, if he had not gone to Tuskingum, and she could say that to him; now it seemed to him that his going, which had been so imperative before he went, was altogether needless.
"Why, there's nothing to say about me," she began in compliance with his gayety, and then she fell helpless from it. "Well, then, about Tuskingum. I should like to hear about Tuskingum, so much!" "I suppose we like it because we've always lived there. You haven't been much in the West, have you?" "Not as much as I hope to be."
Or if she doesn't take a fancy to some one, and goes back to Tuskingum without seeing any one else she likes, there is that awful wretch, and when she hears what Dick did to him she's just wrong-headed enough to take up with him again to make amends to him. Oh, dear oh, dear! I know Lottie will let it out to her yet!" The judge began threateningly, "You tell Lottie from me "
Was he going to take the child back to Tuskingum, which was the same as taking her back to Bittridge? it hurt her to confront him with this question, and she tried other devices for staying and appeasing him.
Boyne was occupied with improvements for the windmills and the canal-boats, which did not seem to him of the quality of the Michigan aerometers, or the craft with which he was familiar on the Hudson River and on the canal that passed through Tuskingum.
He had some elder brothers, most of them in the colonies, and he had himself been out to America looking at something his father had found for him in Buffalo. "You ought to come to Tuskingum," said Lottie. "Is that a large place?" Mr. Pogis asked. "As large as Buffalo?" "Well, no," Lottie admitted. "But it's a growing place. And we have the best kind of times." "What kind?"
On his part, now, he had a genuine regret for her disappointment from the sad safety of the trouble that would keep them at home; and on her part she could be glad of it if any sort of comfort could come out of it to him. "Till she says go," he added, "we've got to stay." "Oh yes," his wife responded. "The worst of it is, we can't even go back to Tuskingum."
Her own traditions were so simple that the point of etiquette which her children had urged had not occurred to her. The question whether Ellen should go with Bittridge at all being decided, she would, of course, go in New York as she would go in Tuskingum. Now Mrs.
When he betrayed this feeling to his wife, as he sometimes must, she scolded him for it, and then offered, if he really thought anything like that, to go back to Tuskingum at once; and it ended in his having to own himself wrong, and humbly promise that he never would let the child dream how he felt, unless he really wished to kill her.
