I'll run in to his dock tonight, an' tell him.",“Aren’t you glad that you can see?” said Grandmother to the boys one day. “Don’t you thank God every day for your good eyes?”,“Not till evening; but there’s the lawn.”,Still evening on, and twilight gray,She tiptoed softly in to Elinor, who was sleeping quietly, and she stood looking down at the sweep of eyelash and rounded cheek that the low-turned light caught out from the jumbled masses of dark hair.，They are the Carsons, mustered in force, and, if anything, a trifle more noisy and oppressive than usual.，The big hands in spite of the shiny gloves tied the dog fast and very close to the tree. “Now give me that dinky ribbon from your hair,” he commanded, and tied the growling dog’s forefeet together.

She would never forget those sad eyes that followed her when she was ordered away.，“A bunch of armed Mexicans! They had camped for supper. I figgered that they were coming on up here to-night, so I beat it straight for you. Bet Dad’s got a search party out huntin’ me right now!”"You foolish child," he said in the deepest voice I almost ever heard him use.
