"She said six," he thought to himself. "I am positive
she said there were only six." He took one of the pictures and put it in
one of the mailing envelopes. He took another picture, and after giving
it a long, loving look he placed it in the inside pocket of his coat,
and with a guilty flush upon his face he fled from the room.
Just as he reached the open parlor door a second thought, which is said
to be the best, came to him, and he was about turning to go upstairs and
replace the picture when Alice's acute ear heard him and she asked, "Did
you find them?"
Quincy, seeing that retreat was now impossible, said, "Yes," and resumed
his seat beside her.
"Did you find six?" said Alice.
"There are five upstairs in the envelope and one here ready to address,"
replied Quincy.
"Her address," continued Alice, "is Miss Emma Farnum, care Cotton & Co.,
Real Estate Brokers, Tremont Row."
Quincy went to the table, wrote the address as directed, and tied the
envelope with the string attached.
"I am afraid the other letter cannot be so easily answered," said Alice.
