To quarrel with Geoffrey's people will be to cause Geoffrey silent but acute regret, and so for his sake, to save him pain, she quietly bears many things, and waits for better days. What is a month or two of misery, she tells herself, but a sigh amidst the pleasures of one's life? Yet I think it is the indomitable pluck and endurance of her race that carries her successfully through all her troubles.,CHAPTER I.—MRS. WOPP’S HOSPITALITY.,Round the old tree!,"Not very," says Geoffrey. "It seems only just now that Mickey and the dogs left us."
