Invitations. Caroline arranges all the details.

he is. He lives in Boston. He is going in a carriage
with Miss Rose. JI thought that Phonny and Malleville
might go in one wagon, and you, Wallace, and Mary Bell
might go in another.”

“Well,” said Wallace, “I should like to go very
much.”

«And you will go too, won’t you, Livingston,” con-
tinued Caroline.

“ Why, yes,” said Livingston, “T should like to go very
much.”

“ Rodolphus Linn is going with Ellen and Annie in an-
other wagon,” said Caroline.

« And how are you going,” asked Livingston.

“Why, I have not any particular plan,” said Caroline.
“Perhaps I shall go in the carriage with Mr. Clarendon
and Miss Rose.”

“No,” said Livingston, “ you will have to go with me.”

“ Well,” said Caroline, “just as you please. That will
make four wagons or chaises, besides the carriage,—
Wallace and Mary Bell in one, Rodolphus and Annie in
another, Livingston and I in another, Phonny and Malle-
ville in another.”

“But I would rather go with Mary Bell,” said Malle-
ville, speaking in a complaining tone.

“Yes, but then there would be nobody to go with
Phonny,” replied Caroline. “You will have to go with
Phonny to keep him company.”

“But Phonny might go on a horseback,” said Malle-
ville. “ He likes to ride on a horseback.”

“¢ Yes,” said Phonny.

“Well!” said Caroline, “and I will lend you my Pony
Black for your horse.”
