Caught by an inch or less!,Another gift Moses brought his little sister was a small shell purse containing a new silver coin. This largess was in a way expiatory. He had not yet regained his self-respect since his refusal to grant Betty’s request for a quarter, and it seemed as though the act of expiation must repeat itself indefinitely.,“What’s the harm? She’s on Mr. Potter’s land, and the road’s near.”,“Jethro barks with his mouth an’ smiles with his tail,” said Betty.，“Mosey, ef I darn yer socks fer a month would you let me hev’ two bits?”，CHAPTER XI.—JONAH AND THE WHALE.，Across to the girls’ side he flew. He knew Jean. She would manage somehow, no matter what the difficulty. And he did not trust her without reason. She was already in her shining misty robe that was to change her from Rain to Dew; but she caught the gray mantle, covered herself with it as she ran, and was in the wings almost as soon as Billy.“Hello, Billy To-morrow!
