"Amelia."

At the signature they choked a little, and looked away at the flying
landscape without seeing it at all. Laura Ann saw another picture--a
girl waiting at a little gate. Woods and dusty road and humble little
homes for background, and an old stage rattling into view in the
foreground. She saw it stop--in the picture--and a helpless little old
figure be taken out. She saw the girl at the gate spring forward and
hold out her hands. But the heart of the picture was the face of the
little old woman on crutches. It was another picture for the Grand
Gallery.
