But
it
was
not
at
Jane
,
Anne
gazed
that
day
in
dismay
and
surprise
.
It
was
at
Ruby
Gillis
,
who
sat
beside
her
in
the
choir
.
What
had
happened
to
Ruby
?
She
was
even
handsomer
than
ever
;
but
her
blue
eyes
were
too
bright
and
lustrous
,
and
the
color
of
her
cheeks
was
hectically
brilliant
;
besides
,
she
was
very
thin
;
the
hands
that
held
her
hymn-book
were
almost
transparent
in
their
delicacy
.
"
Is
Ruby
Gillis
ill
?
"
Anne
asked
of
Mrs.
Lynde
,
as
they
went
home
from
church
.
"
Ruby
Gillis
is
dying
of
galloping
consumption
,
"
said
Mrs.
Lynde
bluntly
.
"
Everybody
knows
it
except
herself
and
her
FAMILY
.
They
wo
n't
give
in
.
If
you
ask
THEM
,
she
's
perfectly
well
.
She
has
n't
been
able
to
teach
since
she
had
that
attack
of
congestion
in
the
winter
,
but
she
says
she
's
going
to
teach
again
in
the
fall
,
and
she
's
after
the
White
Sands
school
.
She
'll
be
in
her
grave
,
poor
girl
,
when
White
Sands
school
opens
,
that
's
what
.
"
Anne
listened
in
shocked
silence
.
Ruby
Gillis
,
her
old
school-chum
,
dying
?
Could
it
be
possible
?
Of
late
years
they
had
grown
apart
;
but
the
old
tie
of
school-girl
intimacy
was
there
,
and
made
itself
felt
sharply
in
the
tug
the
news
gave
at
Anne
's
heartstrings
.
Ruby
,
the
brilliant
,
the
merry
,
the
coquettish
!
It
was
impossible
to
associate
the
thought
of
her
with
anything
like
death
.
She
had
greeted
Anne
with
gay
cordiality
after
church
,
and
urged
her
to
come
up
the
next
evening
.
"
I
'll
be
away
Tuesday
and
Wednesday
evenings
,
"
she
had
whispered
triumphantly
.
"
There
's
a
concert
at
Carmody
and
a
party
at
White
Sands
.
Herb
Spencer
's
going
to
take
me
.
He
's
my
LATEST
.
Be
sure
to
come
up
tomorrow
.
I
'm
dying
for
a
good
talk
with
you
.
I
want
to
hear
all
about
your
doings
at
Redmond
.
"
Anne
knew
that
Ruby
meant
that
she
wanted
to
tell
Anne
all
about
her
own
recent
flirtations
,
but
she
promised
to
go
,
and
Diana
offered
to
go
with
her
.
"
I
've
been
wanting
to
go
to
see
Ruby
for
a
long
while
,
"
she
told
Anne
,
when
they
left
Green
Gables
the
next
evening
,
"
but
I
really
could
n't
go
alone
.
It
's
so
awful
to
hear
Ruby
rattling
on
as
she
does
,
and
pretending
there
is
nothing
the
matter
with
her
,
even
when
she
can
hardly
speak
for
coughing
.
She
's
fighting
so
hard
for
her
life
,
and
yet
she
has
n't
any
chance
at
all
,
they
say
.
"
The
girls
walked
silently
down
the
red
,
twilit
road
.
The
robins
were
singing
vespers
in
the
high
treetops
,
filling
the
golden
air
with
their
jubilant
voices
.
The
silver
fluting
of
the
frogs
came
from
marshes
and
ponds
,
over
fields
where
seeds
were
beginning
to
stir
with
life
and
thrill
to
the
sunshine
and
rain
that
had
drifted
over
them
.
The
air
was
fragrant
with
the
wild
,
sweet
,
wholesome
smell
of
young
raspberry
copses
.
White
mists
were
hovering
in
the
silent
hollows
and
violet
stars
were
shining
bluely
on
the
brooklands
.
