"Mrs. Dunn," Marjorie said, "please let Molly and me fix up this room a / little bit. Now, I'll tell you what: you and the children take these / baskets of things out into the kitchen and put them away, or eat them, / or do what you please. And then you all stay out there until we tell / you you may come back. Ella can trim her hat if she chooses, and Hoopsy / Topsy can take care of the children, and you can go on with your / reading which we interrupted."
"Now, ain't you kind," said Mrs. Dunn; "I do declare that would be jest / lovely! I ain't had a good rest like that in I don't know when! Hoopsy / Topsy, you and Ella'll have to shove me out in this here chair. I can / hobble some, but I can't walk."
