"How much," squeaked the leader, more shrilly than ever, "did Bruce Haydon bribe the Board to let you in?" While the major was thus considering what step he should take, David, returning from a long and solitary walk, entered the room. Of late the young man had indulged in these lonely excursions, whence he always returned more melancholy than ever. His fine face was lean and worn, there were dark circles under his eyes, and his manner, formerly noted for its composure, was now nervous and hesitating. On approaching his guardian he saw the devil-stick on the table, and at once his pale face grew yet paler. I never was so mortified in all my life, and I scrambled to my feet and came over to the hedge to get between him and Billy..

Elinor dropped on a stool and raised her face to her sister, and Patricia was surprised to see that her eyes were shining with joy instead of tears. "I do, however," muttered Jen, divining that Dido had taken the usual route back to "The Wigwam." "It is most unfair, unfair, Miss Kendall," she reiterated, with her two dewlaps solemnly wagging to and fro.
