It didn't hurt the baby--" "Oh, hush, Mona! you don't know what I'm suffering! I guess if your baby had been taken off and put through such awful doings, you'd know what I feel! My baby,--my little flower baby! In that awful crashing, tumbling down old shanty! Oh, I _can't_ stand it!" "Let's go out, Patty, there's no reason for us to stay longer." "Yes, let's," and gathering up her wraps, Patty rose to go.
They made their way out of the dark, crowded place, and finding the motor-car, they went straight home.
Once there, Patty flew to the nursery, and fairly snatching the baby from Nurse Winnie's arms, she held it close, and crooned loving little broken songs.
"You're all right," Mona said, laughing at her.

"You've got your baby, safe and sound,--now just sit down there and enjoy her for a while." This Patty gladly did, and Mona went in search of Farnsworth.
She finally found him, down in a distant garden, where he was looking after some planting matters.
"Come along o' me," she said, smiling at him.
Wonderingly Farnsworth looked up.
"Thought you girls went to the city," he said.
"We did,--also, we returned.

Patty is in the nursery, and I want a few minutes' talk with you." "O.K.," and the big man gave some parting instructions to a gardener and then went off with Mona.

She led him to a nearby arbour, and commenced at once.
"You and I are old friends," she said, "and so I'm going to take an old friend's privilege and give you some advice, and also ask a few questions.

First, who is Azalea ?" "My two or three times removed cousin." "Are you sure ?" Farnsworth looked at her.
