Is Mrs.Morton there still ?" Bella came to her.
"Did you see him go ?" she asked.

"I was very thankful to you before, but I am more now, because you came just in time.

Don't you think the little ones that never spoke in this world will be able to speak up there ?" "Yes, I think so," Bella answered, fancying that her mind began to wander.
"And so you see my man is sure to ask what we were all doing, and the little one would be able to tell him how good you'd been to us." She stopped; tears flowed softly, but she was too weak for violent grief; and so the two girls left her, after having given the nurse money for present use, and learned what comforts were most needed.
On their return they did not stop at all in Cacouna, but drove straight to the Cottage.

Mrs.Bellairs was still there, and sent word to her sister by Margery to dismiss the sleigh and come in, that they might return home together.

They found the two ladies sitting "conferring by the parlour fire," and eager to hear the result of their visit to Beaver Creek.
