The Story Girl ran over to the buggy and climbed in。  Uncle Blair followed her。  Her arms were full of Mrs。 Dale's chrysanthemums; held close up to her face; and her beautiful eyes shone softly at us over them。  No good…byes were said; as she wished。  We all smiled bravely and waved our hands as they drove out of the lane and down the moist red road into the shadows of the fir wood in the valley。  But we still stood there; for we knew we should see the Story Girl once more。  Beyond the fir wood was an open curve in the road and she had promised to wave a last farewell as they passed around it。

We watched the curve in silence; standing in a sorrowful little group in the sunshine of the autumn morning。  The delight of the world had been ours on the golden road。  It had enticed us with daisies and rewarded us with roses。  Blossom and lyric had waited on our wishes。  Thoughts; careless and sweet; had visited us。  Laughter had been our comrade and fearless Hope our guide。  But now the shadow of change was over it。

〃There she is;〃 cried Felicity。

The Story Girl stood up and waved her chrysanthemums at us。  We waved wildly back until the buggy had driven around the curve。  Then we went slowly and silently back to the house。  The Story Girl was gone。
