10Cric app *The following are extracts from Chace’s narrative: “Every fact seemed “That’s good news. Run ahead, boy, and show us the way. Fly, fly!”,"Maurice wanted to marry her.",He made another of his bows, and Mr[Pg 137] Lawrence saluting him with a slight smile and a lifted hat, passed on.,"I have failed," he said. "There is nothing left but the devil-stick.",He hurried on.，"I am a stranger; I know nothing," she says again, hardly knowing what to say, and moving a little as though she would depart.，He sighed and turned to glance back at the cottage resting in the hardwood grove. It looked very homey, very restful to him, beneath its vines of clustering wild-grape and honeysuckle. It was home—home it must be always. And Mary loved it just as he loved it; this he knew. She was a fine woman, a great helpmate, a wonderful wife and mother. She was fair minded too. She loved Billy quite as much as she loved her own son, Anson. Billy must be more careful, more thoughtful of her comfort. He would have a heart to heart talk with his son, he told himself as he went on to the barn.，From the high hill on which they stand, steep rocks descend until they touch the water's edge, which lies sleeping beneath them, lulled into slumber by the tranquil moon as she comes forth "from the slow opening curtains of the clouds."This High Street was pleasantly furnished with shops: the butcher's, the owner of which shouted in talk to his customers as he dexterously chopped on his block; the baker's,[Pg 37] with its little bow-window choice with buns and cakes, and pretty shapes of bread; here too was the post-office, which was like a pedlar's tray for variety of contents.

"You should add papa's description to your list of the charms of a West Indian voyage," said Lucy, with a slight glance at Mr Lawrence, for, when a girl has been proposed to by a man and has refused him, and when she is perfectly well aware that his passion remains as great for her as ever it was, she will be coy, shy, cautious, something unintelligible perhaps, in his presence.,“Because—because his name has been written in the police records today, and the policeman took him there, and so it was horrid that this report should say he was a credit”—,“Well. We’ll just have to shake them off.”,Nobody has noticed that anything is wrong. Only Doatie turns very pale, and glances nervously at Geoffrey, who answers her frightened look with a perplexed one of his own.,“S’tup,” he commanded. Jethro immediately sat up on his hind legs.,“I guess we haven’t got a right to think until we know for sure, because if Jerry is in cahoots with the cattlemen, we’ll be on to it before long. Oh, thunder, Ted, I just don’t believe Jerry is mixed up in anything wrong.”,“A whale is a fish bigger nor a house,” answered Pete, with ready assurance.,"Ah!" said Sarby, walking toward the door, "you will know the reason when you learn the truth!","Oh, did he though?" cried Patricia, kindling. "How clever of him to see. I thought no one dreamed!",“Good day,” said Johnny Blossom, bowing low. “Please take this”—and he put the envelope into her hand.,"By Jove, you know, it is odd," says Geoffrey, presently, speaking as one might who has for long been following out a train of thought by no means unpleasant, "his sending for her, and that: there must be something in it. Rodney didn't write to her for nothing. It must have been to——" Here he checks himself abruptly, remembering his promise to Mona to say nothing about the scene in the library.
