It's a lovely day, and you have seen nothing of St.Croix and our country roads yet." Eeny's idea was applauded, and immediately after breakfast the barouche was ordered out, and Thomas was in attendance.

Mr.Ogden packed his master's valise, and the trio entered the carriage and were driven off.
"Attend to Mr.Richards as usual, Ogden," said the Captain, as Ogden helped him into his overcoat.

"I will be back to-morrow." Grace stood in the doorway and watched the barouche until the winding drive hid it from view.

Then she went back to attend to her housekeeper's duties--to give the necessary orders for dinner, see that the rooms were being properly arranged, and so forth.
