"Don't borrow any trouble about that. I shall leave you the furniture
as it stands, and when I come back to college, even if we are in different classes, you must take me in again." "Of course I will agree to an arrangement so much in my favor, but perhaps your guardian will think you had better sell the furniture and realize what you can." "No, I am sure he won't. There's nothing mean about Doctor Mack. You can take in any one you please in my place, only I am to come back at the end of a year if things turn out well." "I heartily hope you will come back, and if you will excuse my saying so, with a more earnest spirit, and a determination to do justice to your really excellent talents." "Good advice! I'll adopt it. I'll begin to do better at once. I was intending to take a drive this evening, but it would cost me two dollars, and I will stay at home and save the money." "Come with me on a walk, instead." "I will." "We will go to the top of Mount Legar. At sunset there will be a fine view from there." "I must stop on the way and pay Mr. Daniels what I owe him. He will lose a good deal by my going away." |
