“So’m I,” said Ginger still more fervently.
“Well, let’s chuck it.”
He turned to Lady Barbara. “You can go home,” he said.
Her face fell.
“I don’t want to go home,” she said; “I’m going to stay with you always and always.”
“Well, you’re not,” said William shortly, “’cause we’re going home—so there.”
He set off with Ginger across the fields. The kidnapped one ran lightly beside them.
“I’m going where you go,” she said. “I like you.”
“WE KIDNAPPED A KID,” SAID WILLIAM, DISCONSOLATELY,
“AN’ WE CUDN’T GET ANY MONEY FOR HER, AN’ WE CAN’T
GET RID OF HER.”
