Miriams last sentence, the jolliest little girl you ever saw. She and her mother are lodging at that gray house not far from the lodge. Michael thats the small boy had been ill, and the mother seems to be half an invalid. You should have told me of her before, said Mrs. Hereford. She might have been glad to borrow books, for this lonely country place must be dull for an invalid. Is she as I rish as her daughter? No on the contrary, she is English, and seems quiet and reserved, and as if she had lived through a lot of trouble. I cant make out much about the father, except that they are to join him in a few weeks time. I fancy he is a literary man of some sort. Doreen spoke once about his writing. It is a very curious name, said Mrs. Hereford. It makes one think of a soup tureen, said Miriam, naughtily. Though Max will declare that it is the most beautiful old Irish name in existence. Nothing offends him more than to lay the accent on the first syllable. If I call the child Dor-een, he says it sounds like the feminine of John Dory. She certainly has the most beautiful voice, said John Desmond. Could we not make her sing to Mrs. Hereford? Miriam clapped her hands with delight at the suggestion. The very thing, she exclaimed, to pass away this dull afternoon. See, it does not rain so very fast, and I am sure that cloak must be waterproof. Do go and fetch her. Max, and tell her that I am shut in with a bad cold, and want to be amused. Stay; I had better write to Mrs. O'Ryan. It is hardly civil not to explain to her that I am unable just now to call upon her; and, Max, you can take down the new Contemporary she might like to see it, said Mrs. Hereford, turning from her embroidery frame to a cosy little writing-table that stood by the hearth. The mother and son were not unlike each other.
