Jenks, will you please take note of these Spralls, so you can tellme about them? Edd, you must come back to your old self. Shore thatll be good, he replied with interest. She says if shes old enough to be asked to dances an to marry,shes her own boss. Jenks,too, was stirring, and soon espying Lucy, he hastened to come out tothe fence.
Through thewindow, which was open, Lucy caught amusing and significant remarks.
What you-all doin here with them work clothes on?
Some men are born great an some havegreatness thrust on them. Bert owns a ranchan hes got a share in his fathers sawmill. I askyou because I know youll be just the same to Clara as you are to me. Then Lucy assuaged her conscience and derived a strange joy out of thedecisions she had made. Reckon I canttell you just how, but it felt so to me.
Suppose the stage beats us to Cedar Ridge!
Jenks,too, was stirring, and soon espying Lucy, he hastened to come out tothe fence.
She had thereddest spots in her cheeks an she couldnt look at Edd.
She would help take the burden of responsibility forthat future.
This dry season keeps down theyellow-jackets.
Gerds ridin in to-day an hell go by here. Id like to ride Baldy as far as we go horseback, said Lucy. Edd appeared to be either dumbfounded or greatly impressed.
Then one of the boys shouted that the stage was coming.
Forget your troubles, returned Lucy tenderly.
Clara did not seem to be able to do anything but cling mutely to Lucy. She wantedto burn her bridges behind her. This meeting had proved to be unexpectedly poignant. There wasnt a crack in that shedanywheres. Your sisters coming has given me awonderful idea. Youve been ablessin to us, he replied with emotion. How would her sister react to this lonely land of trees and rocks? He did not know how much of this was owing to personal contact withher, but she knew. Meanwhile Joe had drivenup to the high porch, from which Lucy helped her sister into thebuckboard.
He appeared thin, hard, hungry,and strained. Then Lucy assuaged her conscience and derived a strange joy out of thedecisions she had made.
The freshnessand fragrance of the forest struck upon Lucy as something new and sweet. Wal, reckon I didnt, he declared honestly. Come to remember, thats the second decision in regard to myproblem.
