Matt: A Story of A Caravan
Buchanan, Robert Williams
Fiction
“Matt, don’t! It won’t do, you know! Yes, I say so still. You’re a rich
woman, and I’m only a poor devil of a painter. You must marry some great
swell.”
But Matt replied--
“I shall never marry any one but _you!_”
“You won’t? Do you mean it?”
“Of course I do.”
He caught her in his arms.
“My darling Matt--yes, I shall call you by that dear name to the end of
the chapter. You love me, then? I can’t believe it!”
“I have loved you,” she answered, laughing, “ever since I first
came--‘to be took!’”
And she rested her head on his shoulder, just as she had done in the old
days, when she was an unsophisticated child of Nature.
“So there’s to be a wedding, after all,” he said, kissing her. “Matt,
I’ve an idea!”
“Yes?”
“When we marry, suppose we arrange to spend the honeymoon in--a
CARAVAN!”
