CHAPTER VIII
rvcle Isaac’s
OHNNY BLOSSOM was the only
child present among all the people
who had assembled to hear the
reading of Uncle Isaac’s will. He had
wished that he might go home instead of
roaming aimlessly, as he had been doing for a long
time, about the grounds which seemed today
more solemnly quiet than ever.
Perhaps he might find Lars Berget, who
worked in the stable under Carlstrom, but who
was always pleasant and had a great deal to
tell about the different horses. Why, there
was Lars now. Johnny scarcely recognized him
in his new black clothes.
"They are asking for you, John," said Lars.
"The will is going to be read now, and we must
all be in the library together, they say, to hear
— right and proper — who shall be master of
Kingthorpe after this."
"Can’t you and I go to the stable instead?"
ventured Johnny. " It will be so tiresome in the
house."
