The
committee
waited
on
Judson
Parker
the
next
afternoon
.
Anne
pleaded
eloquently
against
his
nefarious
design
and
Jane
and
Diana
supported
her
morally
and
valiantly
.
Judson
was
sleek
,
suave
,
flattering
;
paid
them
several
compliments
of
the
delicacy
of
sunflowers
;
felt
real
bad
to
refuse
such
charming
young
ladies
.
.
.
but
business
was
business
;
couldn
’
t
afford
to
let
sentiment
stand
in
the
way
these
hard
times
.
“
But
I
’
ll
tell
what
I
WILL
do
,
”
he
said
,
with
a
twinkle
in
his
light
,
full
eyes
.
“
I
’
ll
tell
the
agent
he
must
use
only
handsome
,
tasty
colors
.
.
.
red
and
yellow
and
so
on
.
I
’
ll
tell
him
he
mustn
’
t
paint
the
ads
BLUE
on
any
account
.
”
The
vanquished
committee
retired
,
thinking
things
not
lawful
to
be
uttered
.
“
We
have
done
all
we
can
do
and
must
simply
trust
the
rest
to
Providence
,
”
said
Jane
,
with
an
unconscious
imitation
of
Mrs
.
Lynde
’
s
tone
and
manner
.
“
I
wonder
if
Mr
.
Allan
could
do
anything
,
”
reflected
Diana
.
Anne
shook
her
head
.
“
No
,
it
’
s
no
use
to
worry
Mr
.
Allan
,
especially
now
when
the
baby
’
s
so
sick
.
Judson
would
slip
away
from
him
as
smoothly
as
from
us
,
although
he
HAS
taken
to
going
to
church
quite
regularly
just
now
.
That
is
simply
because
Louisa
Spencer
’
s
father
is
an
elder
and
very
particular
about
such
things
.
”
“
Judson
Parker
is
the
only
man
in
Avonlea
who
would
dream
of
renting
his
fences
,
”
said
Jane
indignantly
.
“
Even
Levi
Boulter
or
Lorenzo
White
would
never
stoop
to
that
,
tightfisted
as
they
are
.
They
would
have
too
much
respect
for
public
opinion
.
”
Public
opinion
was
certainly
down
on
Judson
Parker
when
the
facts
became
known
,
but
that
did
not
help
matters
much
.
Judson
chuckled
to
himself
and
defied
it
,
and
the
Improvers
were
trying
to
reconcile
themselves
to
the
prospect
of
seeing
the
prettiest
part
of
the
Newbridge
road
defaced
by
advertisements
,
when
Anne
rose
quietly
at
the
president
’
s
call
for
reports
of
committees
on
the
occasion
of
the
next
meeting
of
the
Society
,
and
announced
that
Mr
.
Judson
Parker
had
instructed
her
to
inform
the
Society
that
he
was
NOT
going
to
rent
his
fences
to
the
Patent
Medicine
Company
.
