CHAPTER XX
3/20

The neighbours will have to supply them with a few things.

Will you go to the village and buy clothing for two little children, six and seven years old?
One is a girl, the other a boy." The doctor took out his pocket-book and began to look over bank bills.
"Dresses, do you mean, Dr.Sandford ?--and a boy's dress ?" "I mean, everything they need to put on--dresses and petticoats, and jacket and trowsers, and a shirt or two for the boy.

Here is money, Daisy; spend whatever you find needful." "But, Dr.Sandford--" "Well ?" "I don't believe Mr.Lamb keeps those things ready made." "I am sure he does not.

Buy the stuff, Daisy--all the stuff--we will see about getting it made afterwards.

You can consult my sister, Mrs.
Sandford, about quantities and all that; or I dare say the storekeeper can tell you." So away went the doctor.
