RHODA. 19

“Oh, mother!” cried Rhoda, “I know it is the lady for
whom I let down the bars, for no one else could have known
Corn Silk.”

Rhoda is a big girl now, but she still has the doll named
after Eunice Alden, and, though she loves her very much,
she never sees a cornfield that she does not givea sigh for her
dear little Corn Silk.
