I am sure there are a good many of them Mr Croft would like to read, even if he has read them before.

There are lots of queer old-time histories and biographies, and sets of bound magazines, some of them over a hundred years old.

Would you like me to select some for you, Mr Croft?
Or shall I write some of the titles on a slip of paper, and let you select for yourself ?" "I shall be delighted," said Lawrence, "to have you make a choice for me; and I think the list would be the better plan, because books would be so heavy to carry about." "I will do it immediately," said Miss March, and she walked rapidly to the house.
"Now then," said Mrs Keswick, "I'll put a chair out here on the grass, close to the door.

It's shady there, and I should think it would be pleasant for both of you, if she would sit there and read to you out of those books.

She is a fine woman, that Miss March--a much finer woman than I thought she could be, before I knew her." "She is, indeed," said Lawrence.
"I suppose you think she is the finest woman in the world ?" said the old lady, with a genial grin.
"What makes you suppose so ?" asked Lawrence.
"Haven't I eyes ?" said Mrs Keswick.
