"About the witch?" said Esther.
"It'—mystery."
"Then is there to be a witch?"
"Certainly."
"Who will it be?"
"Part of the mystery," said Judy. "Upon my word I don't know. I couldn't find out. And I tried, too."
"What is she going to do?"
"That's the rest of the mystery. Without being a witch myself, how am I going to tell?"
"I have heard sometimes that you were," said Esther.
