The
evening
that
Fred
Vincy
walked
to
Lowick
parsonage
(
he
had
begun
to
see
that
this
was
a
world
in
which
even
a
spirited
young
man
must
sometimes
walk
for
want
of
a
horse
to
carry
him
)
he
set
out
at
five
o
’
clock
and
called
on
Mrs
.
Garth
by
the
way
,
wishing
to
assure
himself
that
she
accepted
their
new
relations
willingly
.
He
found
the
family
group
,
dogs
and
cats
included
,
under
the
great
apple
-
tree
in
the
orchard
.
It
was
a
festival
with
Mrs
.
Garth
,
for
her
eldest
son
,
Christy
,
her
peculiar
joy
and
pride
,
had
come
home
for
a
short
holiday
—
Christy
,
who
held
it
the
most
desirable
thing
in
the
world
to
be
a
tutor
,
to
study
all
literatures
and
be
a
regenerate
Porson
,
and
who
was
an
incorporate
criticism
on
poor
Fred
,
a
sort
of
object
-
lesson
given
to
him
by
the
educational
mother
.
Christy
himself
,
a
square
-
browed
,
broad
-
shouldered
masculine
edition
of
his
mother
not
much
higher
than
Fred
’
s
shoulder
—
which
made
it
the
harder
that
he
should
be
held
superior
—
was
always
as
simple
as
possible
,
and
thought
no
more
of
Fred
’
s
disinclination
to
scholarship
than
of
a
giraffe
’
s
,
wishing
that
he
himself
were
more
of
the
same
height
.
He
was
lying
on
the
ground
now
by
his
mother
’
s
chair
,
with
his
straw
hat
laid
flat
over
his
eyes
,
while
Jim
on
the
other
side
was
reading
aloud
from
that
beloved
writer
who
has
made
a
chief
part
in
the
happiness
of
many
young
lives
.
The
volume
was
"
Ivanhoe
,
"
and
Jim
was
in
the
great
archery
scene
at
the
tournament
,
but
suffered
much
interruption
from
Ben
,
who
had
fetched
his
own
old
bow
and
arrows
,
and
was
making
himself
dreadfully
disagreeable
,
Letty
thought
,
by
begging
all
present
to
observe
his
random
shots
,
which
no
one
wished
to
do
except
Brownie
,
the
active
-
minded
but
probably
shallow
mongrel
,
while
the
grizzled
Newfoundland
lying
in
the
sun
looked
on
with
the
dull
-
eyed
neutrality
of
extreme
old
age
.
Letty
herself
,
showing
as
to
her
mouth
and
pinafore
some
slight
signs
that
she
had
been
assisting
at
the
gathering
of
the
cherries
which
stood
in
a
coral
-
heap
on
the
tea
-
table
,
was
now
seated
on
the
grass
,
listening
open
-
eyed
to
the
reading
.

But
the
centre
of
interest
was
changed
for
all
by
the
arrival
of
Fred
Vincy
.
When
,
seating
himself
on
a
garden
-
stool
,
he
said
that
he
was
on
his
way
to
Lowick
Parsonage
,
Ben
,
who
had
thrown
down
his
bow
,
and
snatched
up
a
reluctant
half
-
grown
kitten
instead
,
strode
across
Fred
’
s
outstretched
leg
,
and
said
"
Take
me
!
"
"
Oh
,
and
me
too
,
"
said
Letty
.
"
You
can
’
t
keep
up
with
Fred
and
me
,
"
said
Ben

"
Yes
,
I
can
.
Mother
,
please
say
that
I
am
to
go
,
"
urged
Letty
,
whose
life
was
much
checkered
by
resistance
to
her
depreciation
as
a
girl
.
"
I
shall
stay
with
Christy
,
"
observed
Jim
;
as
much
as
to
say
that
he
had
the
advantage
of
those
simpletons
;
whereupon
Letty
put
her
hand
up
to
her
head
and
looked
with
jealous
indecision
from
the
one
to
the
other
.
"
Let
us
all
go
and
see
Mary
,
"
said
Christy
,
opening
his
arms
.
