"To school?" gasped Sarah. "Ach, but I am going to stay here and keep
the house, so that when you come home again--"
Sarah was sure that William would not stay in Spring Grove.
"Come home?" repeated William. "But I am going to stay home. I am going
to stay here and farm, and the trolley is coming almost to the door,
and--"
The slender tower of the main building of the "Normal" came back into
Sarah's field of vision.
"Ach!" she cried. "Perhaps I could go to the school, and ride on the
trolley back and forth, and keep house yet, and--"
William laughed.
"You shall go on the trolley back and forth, all right, little
Dutchman," he said. "But you shall not keep house, yet."
"But who will keep house? It is always so many things to do!"
"What would you think of teacher for a housekeeper?"
"Teacher!" cried Sarah. "Miss Miflin?"
"Yes."
"Would teacher stay here with us?"
"She says so," answered William gravely.
