The
children
agreed
as
they
went
home
to
dinner
that
the
Porter
was
most
delightful
company
.
Next
day
was
Roberta
's
birthday
.
In
the
afternoon
she
was
politely
but
firmly
requested
to
get
out
of
the
way
and
keep
there
till
tea-time
.
"
You
are
n't
to
see
what
we
're
going
to
do
till
it
's
done
;
it
's
a
glorious
surprise
,
"
said
Phyllis
.
And
Roberta
went
out
into
the
garden
all
alone
.
She
tried
to
be
grateful
,
but
she
felt
she
would
much
rather
have
helped
in
whatever
it
was
than
have
to
spend
her
birthday
afternoon
by
herself
,
no
matter
how
glorious
the
surprise
might
be
.
Now
that
she
was
alone
,
she
had
time
to
think
,
and
one
of
the
things
she
thought
of
most
was
what
mother
had
said
in
one
of
those
feverish
nights
when
her
hands
were
so
hot
and
her
eyes
so
bright
.
The
words
were
:
"
Oh
,
what
a
doctor
's
bill
there
'll
be
for
this
!
"
She
walked
round
and
round
the
garden
among
the
rose-bushes
that
had
n't
any
roses
yet
,
only
buds
,
and
the
lilac
bushes
and
syringas
and
American
currants
,
and
the
more
she
thought
of
the
doctor
's
bill
,
the
less
she
liked
the
thought
of
it
.
And
presently
she
made
up
her
mind
.
She
went
out
through
the
side
door
of
the
garden
and
climbed
up
the
steep
field
to
where
the
road
runs
along
by
the
canal
.
She
walked
along
until
she
came
to
the
bridge
that
crosses
the
canal
and
leads
to
the
village
,
and
here
she
waited
.
It
was
very
pleasant
in
the
sunshine
to
lean
one
's
elbows
on
the
warm
stone
of
the
bridge
and
look
down
at
the
blue
water
of
the
canal
.
Bobbie
had
never
seen
any
other
canal
,
except
the
Regent
's
Canal
,
and
the
water
of
that
is
not
at
all
a
pretty
colour
.
And
she
had
never
seen
any
river
at
all
except
the
Thames
,
which
also
would
be
all
the
better
if
its
face
was
washed
.
