And she would be at school in the morning! It was while pondering on how he might contrive to wear his Sunday clothes on the morrow that Billy fell asleep to dream that he was old man Scroggie's ghost and that he was sitting in the centre of Lake Erie with the big hardwoods bush on his knees, waiting for her to come that he might present it all to her.,The boys waited until the lantern's glow grew hazy through the slackening rain, then they sprang up and followed.

Must be somebody with a lantern.","Teacher," he said in awed tones, "sometimes I'm sure you kin see. If you can't see how do you find out things like you do?
