Years with her. When say all of us
mean pa and ma and Helen and Alice
and myself CRobert), the only boy in the
family, and l can tell you being the
only boy, with two older sisters order
ing you round, and nagging and max
ing fun of you, isn't delightful posi-
ton.
Pa is grandma's only child, and that's
the reason there's SO few of us when
we come together at family dinner.
To be sure we have other relatives,
but they live way up north, and |
haven't seen half of them and couldn' t
even tell you half their names.
Grandma lives on a farm about two
miles from the town of Shelton, and
though she's very old lady she's as
spry and active as if she was young,
and manages the farm by herself just
as well as grandpa did when he was
living.
We live so far from Pine Grove
that's the name of the farm-that we
always get there a day or two before
New Years. l must say for grandma
there isn't any stinting at her table, or
winking and frowning at you not to
take two helps of this or that, and
when she catches ma or the girls doing
1t at me, she calls out:
For goodness sake, let Bob eat as
much as he wants to! Where's the
sense of stinting a boy of thirteen in
his eating? like to see young people
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1891-12-31

eat as if they enjoyed their meals, ana
not mincing and dallying over their
plates. Let the boy alone, Maria.''
Grandma has a cook, an Irishwoman
named Molly McShane, just as jolly
aNd good-natured as herself. She's
hved ten years at Pine Grove, and she's
as glad to see us all as gran lima is.
She's no beauty, Molly isn't, for she's
short and squat and has no more fig
ure man cotton bale, and her face is
broad and red, and her nose looks as if
it had been mashed fiat
She isn't young, either, but for all
that she's got a beau named Terence
OBrien. A worthless young fellow he
is, grandma says, who wants to get at
Molly's bag of savings. and if he can
cajole her out of them without marry
ing her, he'll do it; but if he can't, he'll
make her Mrs. O'Brien, and get away
with the money. But Molly keeps a
tight grip on her bag. She and Ter
ence count the money over every two
or three months, but she holds on to
every nickel, and he can't get one of
'em out of her.
Pa tried to persuade her to put her
money in a savings bank, but she boot
ed at him.
mo, sor, I'll be niver that silly to
put me money where l cannot see it
when l want. Banks break, and if
had all the goold and silver and jools
av the wurld, no banks would see 'em,
and swaller 'em up. Sometimes
dhram av me money, and then it does
me all the good in the wurld to open
me chist and see me bag all safe.''
Take care, Molly" pa said, laugh
ing. "Since Terry knows so well
where you keep your treasure, some
bright morning you will wake up and
find both bag and sweetheart gone"
Molly got red, and cried out: AN
do We main to say, sor, that Terence
O'Brien, what comes av the good Guild
shtock-why, the O'Briens came av the
kings av Munsthe r-that he would de-
name himself to be dirthy thafe9 All,
niver!'
Very WE'LL" pa said, still laughing
IF were you, Molly, I'd change my
hiding-place now and then. 1t won't
do any harm"
She didn't answer, but went about
looking troubled until grandma had to
scold her for being SO absent-minded
that she put sugar instead Of salt in
the soup, and burned the chickens to
crisp,

"That sight was too much for Tom
He went over to her, lifted her from the
floor, and sat her upon his knee. And
then he said: My little girl. what is it?
l cannot stand this any longer; You
must tell me what the matter is
"And she threw both arms about his
neck. and between her sobs. she whis-
pered into his ear all her troubles; and
quick as q flash they were as loving as
they had been all summer; and the first
thing they did was to sing the long
metre doxology."
"What had been the matter, Aunt
Jane?" asked Abby, in an interested
voice.
And Aunt Jane said: THAT is the
very strangest part of it; from that
day to this not one of the neignbors
could find out. OF course, there had
been some sort of quarrel, but we
know they had made it up, for Joe
Hines was going up the hill, and he
stopped a minute to hear them sing,
and under the crack of the curtain he
saw them kneeling by the sofa. and
Tom had his arm around Het's waist
and he was praying out aloud. And
Het after told the neighbors that the
next day (that was New Year day., was
the happiest day of her life"
"How long ago was this, Aunt Jane?"
I inquired. And to my establishment
her reply was:
Lets see; ten-twenty-forty-
it must be nigh on to sixty years, and
there's been no happier home in all the
country than theirs How time does
fly! 1t all turned out we'll in their
case, but don't quarrel, my darlings;
you mightn't come out as we'll. Sixty
years! How time does fly, to be sure!'
But auntie," l commenced and
Abby gave my arm jerk as she said:
Hush, Lila; she's gone to sleep, and
that's all she knows about it, any
way"
We looked at her white hair that
shone like silver in the sunlight, and
thought what a wonderful thing it was
to know stories that happened sirty
years ago; and we wondered if our
faces would be all seams and Fuckers
if we should live to be as old as Aunt
Jane. And as we crept softly out of the
room we heard her murmuring, as in a
dream: Sixty years; how time does fly"
