When
Diamond
went
home
at
night
,
he
carried
with
him
one
pound
one
shilling
and
sixpence
,
besides
a
few
coppers
extra
,
which
had
followed
some
of
the
fares
.
His
mother
had
got
very
anxious
indeed
—
so
much
so
that
she
was
almost
afraid
,
when
she
did
hear
the
sound
of
his
cab
,
to
go
and
look
,
lest
she
should
be
yet
again
disappointed
,
and
should
break
down
before
her
husband
.
But
there
was
the
old
horse
,
and
there
was
the
cab
all
right
,
and
there
was
Diamond
in
the
box
,
his
pale
face
looking
triumphant
as
a
full
moon
in
the
twilight
.
When
he
drew
up
at
the
stable
-
door
,
Jack
came
out
,
and
after
a
good
many
friendly
questions
and
congratulations
,
said
:
“
You
go
in
to
your
mother
,
Diamond
.
I
’
ll
put
up
the
old
’
oss
.
I
’
ll
take
care
on
him
.
He
do
deserve
some
small
attention
,
he
do
.
”
“
Thank
you
,
Jack
,
”
said
Diamond
,
and
bounded
into
the
house
,
and
into
the
arms
of
his
mother
,
who
was
waiting
him
at
the
top
of
the
stair
.
The
poor
,
anxious
woman
led
him
into
his
own
room
,
sat
down
on
his
bed
,
took
him
on
her
lap
as
if
he
had
been
a
baby
,
and
cried
.
“
How
’
s
father
?
”
asked
Diamond
,
almost
afraid
to
ask
.
“
Better
,
my
child
,
”
she
answered
,
“
but
uneasy
about
you
,
my
dear
.
”
“
Didn
’
t
you
tell
him
I
was
the
early
bird
gone
out
to
catch
the
worm
?
”
“
That
was
what
put
it
in
your
head
,
was
it
,
you
monkey
?
”
said
his
mother
,
beginning
to
get
better
.
