"Doesn't your head ache?" asked Linnet, guiding her steps as her head rested against her mother's breast.
"No."
"Don't you ache anywhere?" questioned her mother, as they led her to the lounge.
"No, ma'am. Why should I? I didn't fall."
Linnet brought the pillow and comforter, and then ran out through the back yard calling, "Father! Father!"
Down the road Hollis heard the agonized cry, and turning hastened back to the house.
"Oh, go for the doctor quick!" cried Linnet, catching him by the arm; "something dreadful has happened to Marjorie, and she doesn't know what it is."
"Is there a horse in the stable?"
"Oh, no, I forgot. And mother forgot Father has gone to town."
"I'll get a horse then—somewhere on the road—don't be so frightened.
Dr. Peck will be here in twenty minutes after I find him."
