But tea was not much more to Daisy than dinner had been; and when Mrs.Sandford offered to shew her to her room if she desired it, Daisy accepted the offer at once.
Mrs.Sandford herself wished to supply the place of June, and would have done everything for her little guest if she could have been permitted.
Daisy negatived all such proposals.

She could do everything for herself, she said; she wanted no help.

A bag of things had been packed for her by June and brought in the doctor's gig.

Daisy was somehow sorry to see them; they looked like preparations for staying.
"We will send for June to-morrow, Daisy, if your mamma will leave you still with me." "O, I shall go home to-morrow--I hope," said Daisy.

"I hope--" she repeated humbly.
"Yes, I hope so," said Mrs.Sandford.She kissed Daisy and went away.
