The first one that came was her father. He sat down by the sofa, and was so tenderly glad to have her there again, that Daisy's little heart leaped for joy. She put her hand in his, and lay looking into his face.
"Papa, it is nice," she said.
"What?"
"Oh, to be here, and with you again."
Mr. Randolph put his lips down to Daisy's, and kissed them a good many times.
"Do you know we are going to Silver Lake with you as soon as you are strong enough?"
"Oh, yes, papa! Dr. Sandford says he can manage it. But I don't know when."
"In a week or two more."
"Papa, who is going?"
"Everybody, I suppose."
