CHAPTER IV
45/50

Her brother was very strong, and he used to row in a boat forty years ago.

She told me all about it, just as though I'd been Aunt Amy or Mother.

And she says that if we go on being naughty she'll go away, and no one else will have her, because they'll hear about our having been naughty.

And I told her about the workhouse and the porridge and the yellow soap that the Jampot told us of, and it would be awful if she went there because of us, wouldn't it ?" "Awful," said Mary.
But Helen said: "She wouldn't go there.

She'd take a little house, like Miss Dobell, and have tea-parties on Thursdays--somewhere near the Cathedral." "No, she wouldn't!" said Jeremy excitedly.
