CHAPTER XVI.
THE FLIGHT The first person Sara encountered on her return to Sunnyside was Jane Crab, unmistakably bursting to impart some news.
"The doctor's going away, miss," she announced, flinging her bombshell without preliminary.
"Going away ?" Sara's surprise was entirely gratifying, and Jane continued volubly-- "Yes, miss.

A telegram came for him early in the afternoon, while he was out on his rounds, asking him to go to a friend who is lying at death's door, as you may say.

And please, miss, Dr.Selwyn said he would be glad to see you as soon as you came in." "Very well, I'll go to him at once.

Where is Miss Molly?

The doctor asked her to send off a wire for him." "I see." Sara nodded somewhat abstractly.
