"Don't you remember America!" exclaimed Fitz, much horrified.
"Not clearly," she admitted.
"I guess you never saw Cleveland, Ohio, then," said Fitz, "'n' Euclid Avenue, 'n' Wade Park, 'n' the cannons in the square, 'n' the breakwater, 'n' never eat Silverthorn's potatoes at Rocky River, 'n' never went to a picnic at Tinker's Creek, 'n' never saw Little Mountain 'n' the viaduct."
"You are quite right," said little Miss Burton, "I never did."
"When I grow up," said Fitz in a glow of enthusiasm, "I'm going to live in America 'n' have a tower on my house with a flagpole, 'n' a cannon to let off every sunset and sunrise."
"I shouldn't like that," said she, "if I were sleeping in the house at the time."
"I shouldn't be sleeping," said Fitz; "I'd be up early every morning to let the cannon off."
"I remember Newport a little," she said. "I'd live there if I were you. Newport is very smart for America, mamma says. We're going to Newport when I grow up. I'm sure it will be nicer if you are there."
Fitz thought this very likely, but was too modest to say so.
"If I ever go to Newport," he said, "it will be as captain of a cup defender."
