"What has kept you?" her mother asked, as Daisy came in to the tea-table.
"I didn't know how late it was, mamma."
"Where have you been?"
"I was picking wintergreens with Nora Dinwiddie."
"I hope you brought me some," said Mr. Randolph.
"Oh, I did, papa; only I have not put them in order yet."
"And where did you and Nora part?"
"Here, at the door, mamma."
"Was she alone?"
"No, ma'am Mr. Dinwiddie found us in the wood, and he took her home, and he brought me home first."
