The Story of the Treasure Seekers

CHAPTER 6
2/16

The parts near the Heath are first-rate.
I often wish the Park was nearer our house; but I suppose a Park is a difficult thing to move.
Sometimes we get Eliza to put lunch in a basket, and we go up to the Park.

She likes that--it saves cooking dinner for us; and sometimes she says of her own accord, 'I've made some pasties for you, and you might as well go into the Park as not.

It's a lovely day.' She always tells us to rinse out the cup at the drinking-fountain, and the girls do; but I always put my head under the tap and drink.

Then you are an intrepid hunter at a mountain stream--and besides, you're sure it's clean.

Dicky does the same, and so does H.O.But Noel always drinks out of the cup.
