She had a number of handsome dolls at home; but she had never seen one like this before.
"How nice and soft it is to hold!" said Fanny. "I must go right down and show it to grandma, and ask her all about it."
She found grandma in the milk-room, churning cream. "See what I have found, grandma," said Fanny, holding the baby up before her. "Now do tell me whose baby this is."
"Oh," said grandma, laughing, "I made that doll for your mother when she was a little girl. I remember how pleased she was with it. She named it Sally."
"I think old Sally is splendid, and I am going to play with her all the time I am here," said Fanny.
All the rest of her vacation, Sally was Fanny's pet and plaything. She made new clothes for her, took her out to walk and ride every day, and put her to bed every night.
In the picture you may see Fanny and Sally out in the fields together.
