Your sister is coming out to Dalesboro to stay with me . Yes , and you are too , for the whole summer . You need n't say you 're not , because you are . I 've said so . There 's room at Fir Cottage for you both . Yes , Fir Cottage -- I guess you 've heard your mother speak of that . There 's her old room out there that we always slept in when she came to stay all night with me . It 's all ready for you . What 's that ? You ca n't afford to lose your place here ? Bless your heart , child , you wo n't lose it ! The owner of this store is my nephew , and he 'll do considerable to oblige me , as well he might , seeing as I brought him up . To think that Mary Carvell 's daughter has been in his store for three years , and me never suspecting it ! And I might never have found you out at all if you had n't been so patient with that woman . If you 'd sassed her back , I 'd have thought she deserved it and would n't have blamed you a mite , but I would n't have bothered coming to talk to you either . Well , well well ! Poor child , do n't cry . You just pick up and go home . I 'll make it all right with Tom . You 're pretty near played out yourself , I can see that .
But a summer in Fir Cottage , with plenty of cream and eggs and my cookery , will soon XXXXX another girl of you .
