"
Yes
,
ma'am
,
"
sighed
Nancy
,
picking
up
the
half-dried
pitcher
--
now
so
cold
it
must
be
rinsed
again
.
In
her
own
room
,
Miss
Polly
took
out
once
more
the
letter
which
she
had
received
two
days
before
from
the
far-away
Western
town
,
and
which
had
been
so
unpleasant
a
surprise
to
her
.
The
letter
was
addressed
to
Miss
Polly
Harrington
,
Beldingsville
,
Vermont
;
and
it
read
as
follows
:
"
Dear
Madam
:
--
I
regret
to
inform
you
that
the
Rev.
John
Whittier
died
two
weeks
ago
,
leaving
one
child
,
a
girl
eleven
years
old
.
He
left
practically
nothing
else
save
a
few
books
;
for
,
as
you
doubtless
know
,
he
was
the
pastor
of
this
small
mission
church
,
and
had
a
very
meagre
salary
.
"
I
believe
he
was
your
deceased
sister
's
husband
,
but
he
gave
me
to
understand
the
families
were
not
on
the
best
of
terms
.
He
thought
,
however
,
that
for
your
sister
's
sake
you
might
wish
to
take
the
child
and
bring
her
up
among
her
own
people
in
the
East
.
Hence
I
am
writing
to
you
.
"
The
little
girl
will
be
all
ready
to
start
by
the
time
you
get
this
letter
;
and
if
you
can
take
her
,
we
would
appreciate
it
very
much
if
you
would
write
that
she
might
come
at
once
,
as
there
is
a
man
and
his
wife
here
who
are
going
East
very
soon
,
and
they
would
take
her
with
them
to
Boston
,
and
put
her
on
the
Beldingsville
train
.
Of
course
you
would
be
notified
what
day
and
train
to
expect
Pollyanna
on
.
"
Hoping
to
hear
favorably
from
you
soon
,
I
remain
,
"
Respectfully
yours
,
"
Jeremiah
O.
White
.
"
With
a
frown
Miss
Polly
folded
the
letter
and
tucked
it
into
its
envelope
.
She
had
answered
it
the
day
before
,
and
she
had
said
she
would
take
the
child
,
of
course
.
She
HOPED
she
knew
her
duty
well
enough
for
that
!
--
disagreeable
as
the
task
would
be
.
