Part 2 (2/2)
”I will do anything that you dare to do,” replied Kate, stung by the flings of her companion.
”You shall have the greatest time that ever was, but you must take the consequences after it is all over.”
”If you can, I can.”
”Come with me, then,” continued f.a.n.n.y, as she moved along the bank of the river towards the Woodville landing pier.
”I won't go a step till I know what you are going to do.”
”I'm afraid you will back out.”
”No, I won't; I solemnly promise you that I will go with you anywhere you please.”
”I have got some money,” added f.a.n.n.y, in a very mysterious manner.
”How much?”
”Two dollars.”
”Pooh! that ain't much!” sneered Kate.
”Well, I've got five dollars.”
”Have you?”
”Yes.”
”Where did you get it?”
”I found it.”
”Where?”
”On the floor.”
Kate probably had her doubts in regard to the finding of the money, but she did not ask any troublesome questions, and repressed whatever of righteous indignation might have risen in her soul.
”What are you going to do with it?” she asked.
”We will have a good time with it.”
”But where are you going?”
f.a.n.n.y glanced at her companion, and hesitated to reveal the brilliant project, fearful that it might be disapproved.
”We will go over to Whitestone, or down to Pennville, and buy something. But where is Tom? We must have him.”
