Hadn’t they come out to Oxen Bay for the whole summer, Mother and the three sisters and himself? And wasn’t Father coming every Saturday to spend Sunday? They were living in Pilot Taraldsen’s small yellow house, and he and his boy Eric had moved out into a sort of woodshed for the summer. Johnny Blossom had turned somersaults all over the field near the house for pure joy, on his first arrival at Oxen Bay.,“Oh, that would only frighten them if they heard us,” answered Johnny Blossom.，Rodney, with the boy at his side, is covering ground in a state of blissful uncertainty.

The merchant’s boat was an unusually beautiful one.
