"I'm glad you've come home, Mark," said Edith, "I want you to help me in my map questions."
"All right, Edie, but you will have to wait till after supper. I've got something to tell mother."
"What is it, Mark?"
"I saw two old acquaintances of ours from Syracuse this forenoon."
"Who were they?" asked Mrs. Mason eagerly.
"Uncle Solon and Edgar."
"Is it possible? Where did you see them?"
"In City Hall Park. Edgar had just been having his boots blacked by Tom Trotter."
"Did you speak to them?"
"Yes."
