But then there is Josey, though he has gone home now." "I saw a boy at the mill," said Rollo, "when I came along.

I verily believe it was Oliver." "How big was he ?" asked Jonas.
"O, about as big as I am," said Rollo.
"And what was he doing ?" said Jonas.
"O, he was playing about on the rocks, under the falls.

But he didn't seem to have much to do.

He stopped and looked at me when I was coming by." "Very likely it was he," said Jonas.

"If he had only known who you were, he would have liked very much to have come along with you; and you would have been good company for each other.
"And O, Rollo," said Jonas again, very eagerly, "there's somebody you'll like very much indeed." "Who is it ?" said Rollo.
"Franco Ney," said Jonas.
"Franco Ney!" repeated Rollo; "I never heard a boy named Franco before.
How old is he ?" "I don't know," said Jonas.
"Don't know?
Well, where does he live ?--at your house ?" "No," said Jonas.
