The
baby
had
not
been
christened
yet
,
but
Diamond
,
in
reading
his
Bible
,
had
come
upon
the
word
dulcimer
,
and
thought
it
so
pretty
that
ever
after
he
called
his
sister
Dulcimer
!
“
Think
of
a
red
,
fat
angel
,
Dulcimer
!
”
he
repeated
;
“
for
Ruby
’
s
an
angel
of
a
horse
,
Dulcimer
.
He
sprained
his
ankle
and
got
fat
on
purpose
.
”
“
What
purpose
,
Diamond
?
”
asked
his
father
.
“
Ah
!
that
I
can
’
t
tell
.
I
suppose
to
look
handsome
when
his
master
comes
,
”
answered
Diamond
.
—
“
What
do
you
think
,
Dulcimer
?
It
must
be
for
some
good
,
for
Ruby
’
s
an
angel
.
”
“
I
wish
I
were
rid
of
him
,
anyhow
,
”
said
his
father
;
“
for
he
weighs
heavy
on
my
mind
.
”
“
No
wonder
,
father
:
he
’
s
so
fat
,
”
said
Diamond
.
“
But
you
needn
’
t
be
afraid
,
for
everybody
says
he
’
s
in
better
condition
than
when
you
had
him
.
”
“
Yes
,
but
he
may
be
as
thin
as
a
tin
horse
before
his
owner
comes
.
It
was
too
bad
to
leave
him
on
my
hands
this
way
.
”
“
Perhaps
he
couldn
’
t
help
it
,
”
suggested
Diamond
.
“
I
daresay
he
has
some
good
reason
for
it
.
”
“
So
I
should
have
said
,
”
returned
his
father
,
“
if
he
had
not
driven
such
a
hard
bargain
with
me
at
first
.
”
“
But
we
don
’
t
know
what
may
come
of
it
yet
,
husband
,
”
said
his
wife
.
“
Mr
.
Raymond
may
give
a
little
to
boot
,
seeing
you
’
ve
had
more
of
the
bargain
than
you
wanted
or
reckoned
upon
.
”
