Publisher Marketing: Excerpt: ...look at her. "Oh, Mr. Hawker," cried the younger Worcester girl, suddenly emerging from the cloud of argument which Hollanden and Oglethorpe kept in the air, "won't it be sad to lose Grace? Indeed, I don't know what we shall do. Sha'n't we miss her dreadfully?" "Yes," said Hawker, "we shall of course miss her dreadfully." "Yes, won't it be frightful?" said the elder Worcester girl. "I can't imagine what we will do without her. And Hollie is only going to spend ten more days. Oh, dear! mamma, I believe, will insist on staying the entire summer. It was papa's orders, you know, and I really think she is going to obey them. He said he wanted her to have one Pg 102 period of rest at any rate. She is such a busy woman in town, you know."

Oglethorpe arose to drag his chair nearer to the railing, and when he stood the Worces Pg 103 ter mother moved and looked around expectantly, but Oglethorpe took seat again. Hawker kept an anxious eye upon her. Presently Miss Fanhall arose. "Why, you are not going in already, are you?" said Hawker and Hollanden and Oglethorpe. The Worcester mother moved toward the door followed by her... Contributor Bio:  Crane, Stephen Stephen Crane was an American novelist, short story writer, poet, and journalist.
