"You've tired yourself to-day, Miss Daisy, with making that party for
the men!" she said.
"Have you done? Now June, will you go away, please, and leave me my room
for a few minutes?"
"Yes, Miss Daisy--but it's most time for you to go down."
June went, and Daisy locked her doors, and dropped on her knees by her
little bed. How was she to know what was right to do? and still more,
how was she to do it wisely and faithfully? Little Daisy went to her
stronghold, and asked for help; and that she might know what her talents
were.
"Miss Daisy," said the voice of June at the door, "you are wanted in the
library."
Down went Daisy in a hurry. There was her father; and there also, to
her great surprise, were Nora and Mr. Dinwiddie!
"I have brought Nora to make her peace with you, Daisy," said Mr.
Dinwiddie. "I found her in great trouble because, she said, you were
offended with her. Will you love her again?"
Daisy put her arms round Nora, who looked a little ashamed, and gave her
a very peaceful and reassuring kiss. The gentlemen both smiled at her
action.
