“We have borrowed a few books on botany from Dr. McTavish, and he has been coming here to our cottage to spare me walking out to the Basin, though my ankle is much stronger and I have assured him that it is almost completely healed. But I suspect another reason for this; Allan has taken a great interest in our light station. Uncle Gil has shown him how the weights are wound, and Allan has become quite an expert already. He has set up an ingenious method by which Tad and Uncle G. can watch the Li...ght without leaving our kitchen. It is through a mirror fastened to the window on the inside, and most wonderful of all, when the weather is bad, Tad will be able watch the reflection of the light in the warmth of our back kitchen. Really Allan is such a clever fellow! I have not seen George these few days. Allan brings reports of the household. He tells me that the portrait was not ruined and that George was able to salvage it. Apparently Miss Ferguson is quite pleased with it.MoreLessRead More Read Less
