Carl is a merchant in New York, Ned is a clerk in a bank, and Willie is studying at a place called Harvard.

He says that after he finishes his studies, he is going to live with his father and mother.
The Morrises' old friends often come to see them.

Mrs.Drury comes every summer on her way to Newport, and Mr.Montague and Charlie come every other summer.

Charlie always brings with him his old dog Brisk, who is getting feeble, like myself.

We lie on the veranda in the sunshine, and listen to the Morrises talking about old days, and sometimes it makes us feel quite young again.
