The girls both reached the summit at the same moment, and as they scanned the white expanse before them, they exclaimed in frightened whispers: "There comes a man." Instantly they slid back to the bottom again and lay in a heap, gasping and giggling. "Where shall we go? What shall we do?" exclaimed Judith. "Nothing," answered Molly. "We can hardly crawl, ...

Excerpt: ...her. "Come along, let's try again. Once we get to the top of this little 'dis-incline, ' as an old colored man at home would call it, we'll be on the links." The girls both reached the summit at the same moment, and as they scanned the white expanse before them, they exclaimed in frightened whispers: "There comes a man." Instantly they slid back to the bottom again and lay in a heap, gasping and giggling. "Where shall we go? What shall we do?" exclaimed Judith. "Nothing," answered Molly.

Molly had a fear of crazy people that she had never been able to conquer. They rose unsteadily on their frozen feet and began hurrying back in the direction of the trolley embankment. As they ran, they heard a long, sliding, scraping sound. Evidently the man had slid down the little hill. They could hear the sound of his footsteps on the ice. He was running after them. At last he called: "Wait, wait, whoever you are. I'm not going to hurt you." 163 In another moment he had caught up with them. Oh, joy of joys, it was Professor Green, wearing a thick gray sweater and a cap with ear muffs. With a cry of relief, Judith flung herself on her cousin's neck while Molly rather timidly clasped his arm. She felt she could have hugged him, too, if he had only been a relation. "We thought you were an escaped lunatic," she exclaimed. "I am," he answered, "at least I've been...
