“MISS POTTS noticed that Mavis was not at the supper-table. She was about to remark on it when she remembered that Mavis had told her something about an extra singing-lesson. She must have had supper early then, as she sometimes did when Mr. Young came late. So Miss Potts said nothing. The girls thought nothing of it either. They were used to Mavis and her continual extra voice-training now. They hardly missed her. As they often said, Mavis was really nothing but a Voice and a lot of conceit.... Bill was very silent and worried, and ate hardly anything. Warm-hearted Darrell felt sorry for her. She knew she was worrying about Thunder and not being able to go to him. She whispered to Bill. “Shall I go and have a look at him for you after supper?” Bill shook her head. “No. I don't want to get you into trouble. Nobody's allowed in the stables when it's dark.” No one said anything about Mavis not being in the common room after supper.MoreLessRead More Read Less
