A light wagon was standing outside for Julius and his new guardian.
“Jump in, Julius,” said Mr. Taylor.
Our hero did not need a second command. He was quickly in his seat, and looked wistfully at his companion, who held the reins.
“May I drive?” he asked.
“Are you accustomed to driving?”
“No, sir.”
“I suppose you never got a chance in the city?”
“No, sir. Jack didn’t keep a horse,” said Julius, with a smile.
“Who was Jack?”
“He was the man I lived with.”
