She has been rewarded, hasn't she, in finding Uncle Morton?"
"Yes, virtue has had its reward. But you know, Frances, I think we're
being rather generous too."
"Yes?" Frances said interrogatively.
"Well, the end will be that we lose Barbara, and we haven't raised a
finger to prevent it--on the contrary we've helped--and you know we're
never likely to find another sister like her."
"No, of course not. But all the same a wedding--and I suppose there'll
be two--will make a grand finale like the 'Codas' you have in marches."
"Yes. You're really rather poetical, Frances. And perhaps by the time
you're ready for France another aunt will turn up to take you there."
"I hope so, though they can't always expect to find Uncle Mortons as a
reward. But there's time enough to think of that; and at any rate,
Don, I'm going to be bride's-maid at the wedding."
"Yes," said Donald. "And there'll be two wedding cakes running,
Fran--think of that!"
