It was In the full blaze of a morning
sun that Tonnlbei opened her eye* and
looked around the cabin. The other
bunk was empty, and her mother was
not tn the cabin. In her night clothes,
Tonnlbei went to the deck, shouting
the name. “ Edith." her strong young
voice repeating Itself back from the
woods In echoes. Then she went down
stairs again and began to dress
hastily, and every moment her fear
was growing.
She spied the note
pinned to the lamp handle and stared
at tt mutely as If dreading to know Its
contents, but she unpinned It with fin

Her legs were shaking so she had to

Tonnlbei gave a gasping sob. They
had all gone and left her stranded tn
a land o f strangers. Because It was
no longer her home, she began to love
the silent old canal boaL and to wish
with all her soul that Uriah and Edith
would come walking down the cabin
steps.
For a long time she sat thinking,
looking out over the water, sometimes
with tears flooding her lids, sometimes
dry-eyed with frig h t After a while she
got up, took Gussle to the lake, where,
much to the little animal's disgust
she washed her with s scrubbing
brush and soap. Then she carefully
washed herself, letting her feet and
legs hang over the end of the dock
until they, too, were as clean as her
little friend.

urged.
“Yep. you can come,” said Tonnlbei.
with filling throat "but If there's any
one around, don’t atop.”
This was all the warning she dared
give him.
Then she paused long
enough to see him Jump Into the canoe,
and for a few minutes she stood
watching the craft as It danced away
on the water toward Ithaca. Then she
