He was sufficiently apologetic and low spirited to satisfy even the new teacher, who was content to let him off with a lecture. "Early next month, I believe, ma'am." CHAPTER V PAUL "I shall turn off at the bridge," she answered. "It is not long since that I was with your father. I left him in conversation with Captain Acton at Old Harbour House.
