Excerpt from Gipsy's Adventures Nothing was said, however, on that day, for Mrs. Goodenough was not one to hint at what might possibly happen unless she was pretty sure, and meant to do her part toward bringing it about. When she and the two girls were to gether one morning, she said, as if she had just thought of it, How would you like to have Gipsy go with you to Uncle Nathan's? Gipsy's work dropped out of her hands, and she sat as stiff as a stake, staring at Aunt Elsie as if the latter had proposed beheading her. The question had a much different effect upon Stella, whose blue eyes overflowed immediately, and a rain of tears and of kisses made quite a deluge in her mother's neck.
