Didn't it seem odd to see so many new scholars this year? said Randy.

We must get acquainted with them and help them to enjoy our little pleasures.

That is what you and Jotham did when I moved here last year, said Molly Wilson,

I knew that I should be glad to have some one speak to me if I had only strangers about me,

How we shall miss Jotham this year,
gpt
He's going on with his studies with the professor here at home this month, but the first of October he's to be in Cambridge. The tutor goes back there to teach at the college and Jotham is to board near the university, he says, and have private teachin'.

You'll miss him, Randy, won't you?
gpt
We shall all wish that he were with us,

You've got a new dress, Molly; it's a beauty, and it's just like my Randy's.

So it is, said Molly.

I had a birthday a short time ago, and I had a pair of mittens which mother had knit for me to wear this winter, some candy, some shoes and this lovely dress.
gpt
Who gived you the dress?
human
That's what I'd like to know, was Molly's answer.
gpt
It was sent to me, and on the bundle it said, 'From one who loves you.' I'd give much to tell the one who sent it how lovely I think it is.

I like mine better than any dress I've had, said Randy,

I don't know as I'd care what gowns I had if I'd been allowed to go to boarding school, said Phoebe Small.

This school is pleasant enough, I like the teacher and of course I like the girls and boys.
