The
next
afternoon
three
members
of
the
Large
Family
sat
in
the
Indian
gentleman
's
library
,
doing
their
best
to
cheer
him
up
.
They
had
been
allowed
to
come
in
to
perform
this
office
because
he
had
specially
invited
them
.
He
had
been
living
in
a
state
of
suspense
for
some
time
,
and
today
he
was
waiting
for
a
certain
event
very
anxiously
.
This
event
was
the
return
of
Mr.
Carmichael
from
Moscow
.
His
stay
there
had
been
prolonged
from
week
to
week
.
On
his
first
arrival
there
,
he
had
not
been
able
satisfactorily
to
trace
the
family
he
had
gone
in
search
of
.
When
he
felt
at
last
sure
that
he
had
found
them
and
had
gone
to
their
house
,
he
had
been
told
that
they
were
absent
on
a
journey
.
His
efforts
to
reach
them
had
been
unavailing
,
so
he
had
decided
to
remain
in
Moscow
until
their
return
.
Mr.
Carrisford
sat
in
his
reclining
chair
,
and
Janet
sat
on
the
floor
beside
him
.
He
was
very
fond
of
Janet
.
Nora
had
found
a
footstool
,
and
Donald
was
astride
the
tiger
's
head
which
ornamented
the
rug
made
of
the
animal
's
skin
.
It
must
be
owned
that
he
was
riding
it
rather
violently
.
"
Do
n't
chirrup
so
loud
,
Donald
,
"
Janet
said
.
"
When
you
come
to
cheer
an
ill
person
up
you
do
n't
cheer
him
up
at
the
top
of
your
voice
.
Perhaps
cheering
up
is
too
loud
,
Mr.
Carrisford
?
"
turning
to
the
Indian
gentleman
.
But
he
only
patted
her
shoulder
.
"
No
,
it
is
n't
,
"
he
answered
.
"
And
it
keeps
me
from
thinking
too
much
.
"
"
I
'm
going
to
be
quiet
,
"
Donald
shouted
.
"
We
'll
all
be
as
quiet
as
mice
.
"
"
Mice
do
n't
make
a
noise
like
that
,
"
said
Janet
.
Donald
made
a
bridle
of
his
handkerchief
and
bounced
up
and
down
on
the
tiger
's
head
.
"
A
whole
lot
of
mice
might
,
"
he
said
cheerfully
.
"
A
thousand
mice
might
.
"
"
I
do
n't
believe
fifty
thousand
mice
would
,
"
said
Janet
,
severely
;
"
and
we
have
to
be
as
quiet
as
one
mouse
.
"
Mr.
Carrisford
laughed
and
patted
her
shoulder
again
.
