Synopsis

Where are the children? "They can't be far away," replied my wife, looking up from her preparations for supper. "Bobsey was here a moment ago. As soon as my back's turned he's out and away. I haven't seen Merton since he brought his books from school, and I suppose Winnie is upstairs with the Daggetts." "I wish, my dear, you could keep the children at home more," I said, a little petulantly. "I wish you would go and find them for me now, and to-morrow take my place-for just one day." "Well, well," I said, with a laugh that had no mirth in it; "only one of your wishes stands much chance of being carried out. I'll find the children now if I can without the aid of the police. Mousie, do you feel stronger to-night?"

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

How far I have succeeded, the readers of this vol ume, and of the St. Nicholas magazine, wherein the tale appeared as a serial, alone can answer. I have portrayed no actual experience, but have sought to present one which might be verified in real life. I have tried to avoid all that would be impossible or even impro DaD ie. The labors performed by the children in the story were not un known to my own hands, in childhood, nor would they form tasks too severe for many little hands now idle in cities. The characters are all imaginary; the scenes, in the main, are real: and I would gladly lure other families from tenement flats into green pastures. E. P. R. GOUNWALL rON-HUDSON, AUG. IO, 1885.
