What time do you suppose Sarah would be at her house?
I want to see her about her little shaver Brutus, and find out if his ducking did him any harm, and thought I'd walk around later in the evening." "You are apt to find Sarah at home up to a quarter of eight.

After that she will be in her place in the colored church," he was told.
Then the boys took their leave.

On the way home, Thad expressed some curiosity concerning the visit Hugh proposed making to Sarah's home.
"Do you really think that boy might come down with pneumonia, or something like that on account of being in the water, Hugh ?" he asked, at which the other smiled mysteriously and replied: "Oh! the water is still pretty chilly, you know, Thad; and the child was so terribly frightened that he might feel the result of his immersion, even if we did make a fire, and dry his clothes well.
Besides, I've dropped my pocket knife, and I've a little idea it was while we looked through that playhouse of Brutus'.

But suppose you stop asking questions, and agree to accompany me when I make my little call on Sarah this evening ?" "Oh! all right, Hugh, I'll go with you," complained Thad, "but I know as well as anything you've got some queer notion back of it all, which you don't mean to share with me.

But remember that Madame Pangborn told you she would trust Sarah with her purse or her life, she has such confidence in the woman." "I haven't forgotten," said Hugh, quietly.
