Stephen
Irving
came
forward
to
meet
Anne
with
a
smile
.
He
was
a
tall
,
handsome
man
of
middle
age
,
with
iron
-
gray
hair
,
deep
-
set
,
dark
blue
eyes
,
and
a
strong
,
sad
face
,
splendidly
modeled
about
chin
and
brow
.
Just
the
face
for
a
hero
of
romance
,
Anne
thought
with
a
thrill
of
intense
satisfaction
.
It
was
so
disappointing
to
meet
someone
who
ought
to
be
a
hero
and
find
him
bald
or
stooped
,
or
otherwise
lacking
in
manly
beauty
.
Anne
would
have
thought
it
dreadful
if
the
object
of
Miss
Lavendar
s
romance
had
not
looked
the
part
.
So
this
is
my
little
son
s
beautiful
teacher
,
of
whom
I
have
heard
so
much
,
said
Mr
.
Irving
with
a
hearty
handshake
.
Paul
s
letters
have
been
so
full
of
you
,
Miss
Shirley
,
that
I
feel
as
if
I
were
pretty
well
acquainted
with
you
already
.
I
want
to
thank
you
for
what
you
have
done
for
Paul
.
I
think
that
your
influence
has
been
just
what
he
needed
.
Mother
is
one
of
the
best
and
dearest
of
women
;
but
her
robust
,
matter
-
of
-
fact
Scotch
common
sense
could
not
always
understand
a
temperament
like
my
laddie
s
.
What
was
lacking
in
her
you
have
supplied
.
Between
you
,
I
think
Paul
s
training
in
these
two
past
years
has
been
as
nearly
ideal
as
a
motherless
boy
s
could
be
.
Everybody
likes
to
be
appreciated
.
Under
Mr
.

Irving
s
praise
Anne
s
face
burst
flower
like
into
rosy
bloom
,
and
the
busy
,
weary
man
of
the
world
,
looking
at
her
,
thought
he
had
never
seen
a
fairer
,
sweeter
slip
of
girlhood
than
this
little
down
east
schoolteacher
with
her
red
hair
and
wonderful
eyes
.
Paul
sat
between
them
blissfully
happy
.
I
never
dreamed
father
was
coming
,
he
said
radiantly
.
Even
Grandma
didn
t
know
it
.
It
was
a
great
surprise
.
As
a
general
thing
.
.
.
Paul
shook
his
brown
curls
gravely
.
.
.
I
don
t
like
to
be
surprised
.
You
lose
all
the
fun
of
expecting
things
when
you
re
surprised
.
But
in
a
case
like
this
it
is
all
right
.
Father
came
last
night
after
I
had
gone
to
bed
.
And
after
Grandma
and
Mary
Joe
had
stopped
being
surprised
he
and
Grandma
came
upstairs
to
look
at
me
,
not
meaning
to
wake
me
up
till
morning
.
But
I
woke
right
up
and
saw
father
.
I
tell
you
I
just
sprang
at
him
.
With
a
hug
like
a
bear
s
,
said
Mr
.
Irving
,
putting
his
arms
around
Paul
s
shoulder
smilingly
.
I
hardly
knew
my
boy
,
he
had
grown
so
big
and
brown
and
sturdy
.

I
don
t
know
which
was
the
most
pleased
to
see
father
,
Grandma
or
I
,
continued
Paul
.
Grandma
s
been
in
kitchen
all
day
making
the
things
father
likes
to
eat
.
She
wouldn
t
trust
them
to
Mary
Joe
,
she
says
.
That
s
HER
way
of
showing
gladness
.
I
like
best
just
to
sit
and
talk
to
father
.
But
I
m
going
to
leave
you
for
a
little
while
now
if
you
ll
excuse
me
.
I
must
get
the
cows
for
Mary
Joe
.
That
is
one
of
my
daily
duties
.
When
Paul
had
scampered
away
to
do
his
daily
duty
Mr
.
Irving
talked
to
Anne
of
various
matters
.
But
Anne
felt
that
he
was
thinking
of
something
else
underneath
all
the
time
.
Presently
it
came
to
the
surface
.
