3/20 It is one of us that tells this story--but I shall not tell you which: only at the very end perhaps I will. While the story is going on you may be trying to guess, only I bet you don't. It was Oswald who first thought of looking for treasure. Oswald often thinks of very interesting things. And directly he thought of it he did not keep it to himself, as some boys would have done, but he told the others, and said-- 'I'll tell you what, we must go and seek for treasure: it is always what you do to restore the fallen fortunes of your House.' Dora said it was all very well. |
