I was just about to begin to cry again over the last words of the judge, when the only bright spot in the day so far suddenly happened. Pet Buford ran in with the pinkest cheeks and the brightest eyes I had seen since I looked in the mirror the night of the dance. She was in an awful hurry.,"That word should never have been said. It is better broken."，He was out early wheeling from house to house, where various parts of the “show” were receiving last touches.
