38、ld Scotsman who worked there. “Today I am going up the mountain for berries.”“No, no, Missey, not today.” he said , “It will rain.”“No, it will not rain.” I said, “The sun is up.

48、but we never knew, except that he was the nicest possible kind. Mother said we could not afford him because of the tax(稅)and his keep. The tax was five shillings(先令), but it was nearly a year before the time when it must be paid. At last, we decided that all three of us would give up sugar toward sa
