"But now God has given you to Uncle Magnus to make up to him for everything, so you must be as good as good to him."
"Yes, gran'ma"--the whisper was becoming faint.
"When you grow up to be a big, big girl, and grandma isn't here, you must love him and comfort him just the same as if he had been your own father."
"Ye--es, gran'ma."
"And if anybody ever comes and wants to take you away from him, you mustn't go--you must always stay with Uncle Magnus."
"Ye--es, gran'----"
"That's a good girl! And now climb up into bed, and grandma will kiss you and tuck you in for the night."
"And will Maggie come in the morning?"
"Yes, dearest."
"Good night, gran'ma."
