Is that man going to be you beau?" Billy! No! What made you think such a thing?" Aunt Margaret said likely he would fall in love with you, and you wouldn't want me around any more. Oh, but I was scared! It isn't so, is it?" Indeed, no!" I am your beau, ain't I?" Surely you are!" said Elnora, tightening her arm. I hope Aunt Kate has ginger cookies," said Billy with a little skip of delight.””
