It’s very likely that they paid their respects to such a great man as you!” said Olea.,“We came—we came to bring these,” one ventured timidly, and lifted one end of the basket they carried between them.,Billy was suddenly overcome with bashfulness when the child, quite composed, came forward to meet him. A bath, a shampoo, and new clothes had transformed her from a tangled, smudged little girl to a lovely miss with a high-bred air foreign to the childish manners Billy understood. He recognized Edith’s gown in the pretty frock mother and daughter had sat late to make over; but the neat ties and hose, all the little things it takes to make a girl look pretty, where had they come from?，"Please, please, do tell us what it is!
