Lewis Rand

CHAPTER VI
39/41

But the next summer, when she went to Cousin Jane Selden's, there was the boy working in the tobacco on the other side of the stream.

And Jacqueline called to him from under the apple tree.

And then the month that she was to stay with Cousin Jane Selden went by, and she came back to Fontenoy.
And the next summer she didn't go to the Three-Notched Road, but one day the boy came to Fontenoy." "Ah!" said the Major.
"The boy's father sent him to pay some money that he owed to Uncle Dick.
Jacqueline says his father was an honest man, though he was so unkind.
And Uncle Dick sent for Jacqueline and said, 'Jacqueline, this is young Lewis Rand.

Take him and show him the garden while I write this receipt!' So Jacqueline and the boy went into the flower garden, and she showed him the roses and the peacock and the sundial.

And then he went away, and she didn't see him any more for years and years, not till she was grown, and everything was changed.
