Of
course
,
we
would
have
to
have
a
housekeeper
and
I
have
one
ready
on
the
spot
.
You
've
heard
me
speak
of
Aunt
Jamesina
?
She
's
the
sweetest
aunt
that
ever
lived
,
in
spite
of
her
name
.
She
ca
n't
help
that
!
She
was
called
Jamesina
because
her
father
,
whose
name
was
James
,
was
drowned
at
sea
a
month
before
she
was
born
.
I
always
call
her
Aunt
Jimsie
.
Well
,
her
only
daughter
has
recently
married
and
gone
to
the
foreign
mission
field
.
Aunt
Jamesina
is
left
alone
in
a
great
big
house
,
and
she
is
horribly
lonesome
.
She
will
come
to
Kingsport
and
keep
house
for
us
if
we
want
her
,
and
I
know
you
'll
both
love
her
.
The
more
I
think
of
the
plan
the
more
I
like
it
.
We
could
have
such
good
,
independent
times
.
442
"
Now
,
if
you
and
Priscilla
agree
to
it
,
would
n't
it
be
a
good
idea
for
you
,
who
are
on
the
spot
,
to
look
around
and
see
if
you
can
find
a
suitable
house
this
spring
?
That
would
be
better
than
leaving
it
till
the
fall
.
If
you
could
get
a
furnished
one
so
much
the
better
,
but
if
not
,
we
can
scare
up
a
few
sticks
of
finiture
between
us
and
old
family
friends
with
attics
.
Anyhow
,
decide
as
soon
as
you
can
and
write
me
,
so
that
Aunt
Jamesina
will
know
what
plans
to
make
for
next
year
.
"
443
"
I
think
it
's
a
good
idea
,
"
said
Priscilla
.

"
So
do
I
,
"
agreed
Anne
delightedly
.
"
Of
course
,
we
have
a
nice
boardinghouse
here
,
but
,
when
all
's
said
and
done
,
a
boardinghouse
is
n't
home
.
So
let
's
go
house-hunting
at
once
,
before
exams
come
on
.
"
445
"
I
'm
afraid
it
will
be
hard
enough
to
get
a
really
suitable
house
,
"
warned
Priscilla
.
"
Do
n't
expect
too
much
,
Anne
.
446
Nice
houses
in
nice
localities
will
probably
be
away
beyond
our
means
.
We
'll
likely
have
to
content
ourselves
with
a
shabby
little
place
on
some
street
whereon
live
people
whom
to
know
is
to
be
unknown
,
and
make
life
inside
compensate
for
the
outside
.
"
447
Accordingly
they
went
house-hunting
,
but
to
find
just
what
they
wanted
proved
even
harder
than
Priscilla
had
feared
.
Houses
there
were
galore
,
furnished
and
unfurnished
;
but
one
was
too
big
,
another
too
small
;
this
one
too
expensive
,
that
one
too
far
from
Redmond
.
Exams
were
on
and
over
;
the
last
week
of
the
term
came
and
still
their
"
house
o'dreams
,
"
as
Anne
called
it
,
remained
a
castle
in
the
air
.

"
We
shall
have
to
give
up
and
wait
till
the
fall
,
I
suppose
,
"
said
Priscilla
wearily
,
as
they
rambled
through
the
park
on
one
of
April
's
darling
days
of
breeze
and
blue
,
when
the
harbor
was
creaming
and
shimmering
beneath
the
pearl-hued
mists
floating
over
it
.
"
We
may
find
some
shack
to
shelter
us
then
;
and
if
not
,
boardinghouses
we
shall
have
always
with
us
.
"
449
"
I
'm
not
going
to
worry
about
it
just
now
,
anyway
,
and
spoil
this
lovely
afternoon
,
"
said
Anne
,
gazing
around
her
with
delight
.
The
fresh
chill
air
was
faintly
charged
with
the
aroma
of
pine
balsam
,
and
the
sky
above
was
crystal
clear
and
blue
--
a
great
inverted
cup
of
blessing
.
"
Spring
is
singing
in
my
blood
today
,
and
the
lure
of
April
is
abroad
on
the
air
.
I
'm
seeing
visions
and
dreaming
dreams
,
Pris
.
That
's
because
the
wind
is
from
the
west
.
I
do
love
the
west
wind
.
450
It
sings
of
hope
and
gladness
,
does
n't
it
?
When
the
east
wind
blows
I
always
think
of
sorrowful
rain
on
the
eaves
and
sad
waves
on
a
gray
shore
.
When
I
get
old
I
shall
have
rheumatism
when
the
wind
is
east
.
