Conroy stood in the yard, leaning upon the pump, and looking down thoughtfully into the pail into which the water ran slowly from the halfturned faucet that she held in her hand. A boy who stood at the open window of the basement had just called out to her, in a rough, loud voice, that she must not splash the stones, adding a rude threat to his command, and Rosy was thinking sorrowfully of a little friend who had lived in that basement only a few months before.
