HOME AGAIN 
One morning very early mistress packed up her 
things and Guy’s, and Kate was hitched up to the 
carriage and brought up to the side of the house. 
Everybody was very sad ; and I couldn’t under- 
stand what it all meant, till I saw mistress and Guy 
bid grandpa good-bye. Grandpa was still lying in 
bed, with Watch by his side, and they were all 
crying. 
Blanche and Goldie were just ready to go out 
into the field, but they stopped to bid me good- 
bye, and said they were sorry to have me go now 
that they had got acquainted with me ; and they 
hoped that another summer I would visit them 
again. 
I was put into my bag as usual ; and Guy took 
me with him into the carriage. Kate took us to 
the boat landing ; and in a short time we were 
afloat on the beautiful blue water.
