[Mercy Philbrick’s Choice by Helen Hunt Jackson]@TWC D-Link bookMercy Philbrick’s Choice CHAPTER X 28/44
I'm going by the stable.
Let me send Seth right up with the carriage, won't you ?" "No, no! Bless my soul! Thinks I'm made of money, don't she! No, no! I can walk." And the old half-crazy glare came into his eyes. Mercy went nearer to him, and laid her hand gently on his. "Mr.Wheeler," said she, "you did something very kind for me once: now won't you do something once more,--just once? I want you to go home in the carriage.
It is a terribly cold day, and the streets are very icy.
I nearly fell several times myself coming over here.
You will certainly take a terrible cold, if you walk this morning.
