I don't know why. Maybe it was because I'd been Marie all summer, anyway, #0 I wasn't so crazy to be Marie now, hot needing any rest from being Mary, Maybe it was ‘cause I sort of hated to leave Father.

You see, our train wae late, and we had to wait for it; and there was where he told me He had come all the way down there with me, just as he had before But he hadn't acted the same at all He didn’t fidget this time, nor walk over to look at maps and timetables, nor flip out hin watch every other minute with such @ bored air that everybody Knew he was seeing me off Just as a duty, And he didn't ask if I was warmly clad, and had I left anything, either, He just sat jand talked to me, and he asked me had I been a little happler there with | him this year than last; and be said [he hoped I had. And I told bim, of course, I had; that it had been perfectly beautiful there, even if there had been such a mixup of him getting ready for Marie, and Mother sending Mary. And he laughed and looked queer—— sort of half glad and half sorry; and said he shouldn't worry about that Then the train came, and we fot on and rode down to the junction, And there, while we wore waiting for the other train, he tok! me how sorry he was to have me go.
