Elsie at Home

CHAPTER VIII
8/11

By the way, I hope your nephew, Cousin Donald Keith, will be able to get a furlough, so that he can come.

He has visited us several times, here and at the seashore, and I like him very much indeed." "Yes, so do I," said Annis, "and I hope he may be able to come.

I should enjoy showing him my new home and entertaining him there." "He will be in demand if he comes," said Captain Raymond.

"I shall want him as my guest; for he and I are old attached friends." "Ah, yes, I remember," said Annis.

"No doubt he will want to be with you a part of his time." "Yes," said Grandma Elsie; "and as we will all want him we will have to divide the pleasure of his visit among us--if he will allow it." "I have always liked and admired Cousin Donald," said Violet, "and often wondered that he has remained single all these years." "He has not happened to meet the right one yet, I suppose, my dear," the captain said with a smile.
