But on the way home I gave myself the surprise of my life! Suddenly I turned my face against his sleeve and cried as I never had before. I felt safe, for it is a steep road, and he had to drive carefully. However, he managed to press that one arm against my cheek in a way that comforted me into stopping when I saw we were near town.

"Then down through the bushes to that winding lane, I suppose?" said Jen. "I know all that; but afterward?" There was a murmur of assent and Elinor rose quickly. Elinor thanked her with pretty gratitude. Judith merely pursed her lips and tossed her head. "Don't you think the train must be late?" she said to Elinor. "I do hope you can stay till Miss Jinny gets here.".
