Mrs. Wopp’s voice, in a moment, was safe on terra firma.,The best of all was a letter from Jimmy, scrawled with his left hand.,“This here thing looks like a mule with his ribs druv in an’ stan’in’ on his haunches. What d’ye call it?”,“Papa went away to South America when I was eight. He told me I must be very wise and help mama to do what was right,—sometimes she does take my advice, you know. I’ve tried to be brave so God would bring her back to me; but my braveness isn’t very strong yet, or I wouldn’t cry so, would I?” she questioned, with a teary little smile.,Mrs. Bennett bade him good-night, and left him to the stars and the quiet night. Her heart was still sore for the little boy of the past, yet a strange joy came to her; the thoughtful, observant, earnest man had heralded his coming. She should be very proud of him.，“She won’t do it; she said so before. She wants to be Alan-bane.”，“Yes, we have, Billy,” Mrs. Bennett corrected. “Bring them in now.
