"You amaze me!" cried Mr. Minturn. "I saw Douglas this morning, and told
him where I was coming, but he never said a word."
"He didn't know one to say on this subject," explained Leslie. "You see I
rented a cabin over at Atwater and had my plans made before I told even
father what a delightful thing was in store for him."

father's just obsessed, so much so that I think he's carrying double."
"I know he is," said Mr. Minturn. "And so you made a plan to allow him to
proceed with his work all day and then have the delightful ride, fishing
and swimming in Atwater morning and evening. How wonderful! And of course
Douglas will be there also?"
"Of course," agreed Leslie. "At least he shall have an invitation. I'm
going to surprise him with it this very evening.
