You might climb up in the tree for them, you are so small and light.”,That night, after Miss Jinny's trunk had finally been disposed of, and all the gossip of Rockham village and outskirts had been thoroughly aired, and Miss Jinny, tired from her strenuous day, had gone thankfully to bed, Patricia and Elinor were talking over the day's happenings as they brushed their hair in the seclusion of their own room.,When Moses, accompanied by his small attendant, returned to his unfinished task in the garden, he found Betty still at work.
