around can tell you just where to find
"Abby Dodge" for she is heroine ia
that secluded country district A
large and neat white farm house, upon
sunny slope by the roadside, is her
old and cheerful home. 1t is not 50 el-
egant as some homes, but everything
betoke"s thrift and prosperity Gail
Hamilton's pen was never impclled by
the sti"gs OF want, as one can we'll sec
by visiting her uno'etcndiny but sc.
