"I hope Miss Howes doesn't forget," she said apprehensively. "I'd so much rather go into the class with her." "How she'd have adored mother, if she had only lived," said Elinor softly. "Mother was so lovely. I always feel that you two have been cheated out of so much—not even to have a dim memory of her.".
