What shall you call it--Fairfield Hall, Fairfield Place, or what ?" "I don't know," cried Patty, dashing up the veranda steps.

"But isn't it a dear house! I feel at home here already.

This big piazza will be lovely in warm weather.

There's room for hammocks, and big chairs, and little tables, and everything." Inside, the house proved very attractive.

The large square hall opened into a parlour on one side and a library on the other.
