I guess supper is pretty nearly ready now. But wait a minute—here is someone I want you to know.”,Johnny Blossom sat down upon a box, with his hands thrust deep in his pockets, and stared at Bob; but not a word passed his lips.,"I do not understand," she says, very proudly, throwing up her head with a charming gesture.
