She
kept
to
herself
for
the
first
days
,
while
North
Dormer
was
recovering
from
its
brief
plunge
into
publicity
,
and
the
subsiding
agitation
left
her
unnoticed
.
But
the
faithful
Ally
could
not
be
long
avoided
.
For
the
first
few
days
after
the
close
of
the
Old
Home
Week
festivities
Charity
escaped
her
by
roaming
the
hills
all
day
when
she
was
not
at
her
post
in
the
library
;
but
after
that
a
period
of
rain
set
in
,
and
one
pouring
afternoon
,
Ally
,
sure
that
she
would
find
her
friend
indoors
,
came
around
to
the
red
house
with
her
sewing
.
The
two
girls
sat
upstairs
in
Charity
’
s
room
.
Charity
,
her
idle
hands
in
her
lap
,
was
sunk
in
a
kind
of
leaden
dream
,
through
which
she
was
only
half
-
conscious
of
Ally
,
who
sat
opposite
her
in
a
low
rush
-
bottomed
chair
,
her
work
pinned
to
her
knee
,
and
her
thin
lips
pursed
up
as
she
bent
above
it
.
“
It
was
my
idea
running
a
ribbon
through
the
gauging
,
”
she
said
proudly
,
drawing
back
to
contemplate
the
blouse
she
was
trimming
.
“
It
’
s
for
Miss
Balch
:
she
was
awfully
pleased
.
”
She
paused
and
then
added
,
with
a
queer
tremor
in
her
piping
voice
:
“
I
darsn
’
t
have
told
her
I
got
the
idea
from
one
I
saw
on
Julia
.
”
Charity
raised
her
eyes
listlessly
.
“
Do
you
still
see
Julia
sometimes
?
”
Ally
reddened
,
as
if
the
allusion
had
escaped
her
unintentionally
.
“
Oh
,
it
was
a
long
time
ago
I
seen
her
with
those
gaugings
.
.
.
.
”
Silence
fell
again
,
and
Ally
presently
continued
:
“
Miss
Balch
left
me
a
whole
lot
of
things
to
do
over
this
time
.
”
“
Why
—
has
she
gone
?
”
Charity
inquired
with
an
inner
start
of
apprehension
.
“
Didn
’
t
you
know
?
She
went
off
the
morning
after
they
had
the
celebration
at
Hamblin
.
I
seen
her
drive
by
early
with
Mr
.
Harney
.
”
There
was
another
silence
,
measured
by
the
steady
tick
of
the
rain
against
the
window
,
and
,
at
intervals
,
by
the
snipping
sound
of
Ally
’
s
scissors
.
Ally
gave
a
meditative
laugh
.
“
Do
you
know
what
she
told
me
before
she
went
away
?
She
told
me
she
was
going
to
send
for
me
to
come
over
to
Springfield
and
make
some
things
for
her
wedding
.
