THE TRUE FAIRY STORY
The next week they got Mr. Giles’s horse, and drove down to meet Miss Rose at the station.
How glad Clematis was to see her!
She sat in her lap all the way back to Bean Hill, and told her about the mountains, the lakes, the trees, and the birds.
“So you think you would like to stay a whole year, do you?” asked Miss Rose.
Clematis smiled and nodded.
“Deborah can stay too,” she said.
When they got to the little cottage, Miss Rose went in with Mr. Brooks, and had a long talk.
She told him all she knew about Clematis.
He listened while she told him how Clematis ran away, how the policeman found her, and how she came to the Home.
