He has been with me almost a year—ever since I came back from Virginia.”,"You have two brothers older than you?" asks Mona, meditatively.,The frenzied cries of the child were distinctly audible in the kitchen where sat Mrs. Mifsud and Mrs. Wopp, the latter busily engaged in mending a pile of socks. Both ladies sprang to their feet and hurried through the open door towards the garden, Mrs. Wopp still wearing a half-darned sock on her left hand and scattering others as she ran. They were followed by Betty, who had been filling her watering-can from the rain-barrel and had also heard the cries of the frightened child.,"Her voice was low and sweet,,"We've had our supper," said Billy. "Thought we'd like to see you fer a minute er two, Harry," he added gravely, as he and his chum seated themselves.，"It is really nothing," says Nolly, feverishly.

Do you mean to say she had only eight apples for herself? And she so fond of them too!
