aster--we call Mr. Winters that,
all of us--takes the care. I don't know what we would do
without him, and what we can without that stolen money.
Monty says if he had that or had some of his own, he'd be
able to manage without any old Master, he would. That was
when he wanted to go sailing Sunday afternoon and Mr. Seth
said 'no.'

"Monty's real smooth outside but he has prickly tempers
sometimes; and I guess he--he sort of 'sassed' the Master,
'cause he refused to give us any money to hire a sail boat
and Monty hadn't any left himself. But it all blew over. Mr.
Seth doesn't seem to mind Monty any more'n he does his
tortoise-shell cat; and he's a very nice boy, a very nice
boy, indeed. So are they all. I'm proud of them all. So is
Mabel. So is Molly B. Those two are so proud they squabble
quite consid'able over which is the nicest, and the boys
just laugh.

"Oh! I must stop. It's getting real near breakfast time; and
dear Aunt Betty, will you please send me another one hundred
dollars by the return of the mail? I mean as quick as you
can. You see to-day, we're going around visiting
'Headquarters' of all the revolution people. There's a lot
of them and they won't cost anything to see; but to-morrow
there's 'The Greatest Show on Earth' coming to Newburgh and
I _must_ take my guests to it. I really must.

"Good-by, darling Aunt Betty.
"DOROTHY.

"P. S.--I've heard that people can telegraph money and that
it goes quicker that way. Please do it.

"D.

"P. P. S.--Mr Seth says that this Headquartering will be as
good as the circus, but it isn't easy to believe; and Melvin
isn't particularly pleased over the trip. I suppose that's
because our folks whipped his; and please be sure to
telegraph the money at once. The tickets are fifty cents
a-piece and ten cents extra for every side-show; and Molly
and I have ciphered it out that it will take a lot, more'n
I'd like to have the Master pay, generous as he is. Isn't it
lovely to be a rich girl and just ask for as much money as
you want and get it? Oh! I love you, Aunt Betty!

"DOROTHY; for sure the last time."
