Do n't worry about the minister . I 'm very polite to him , but I shall never -- _ no , never _ -- fall in love with _ him _ -- tell Jane . Your loving little girl , MARGARET . Margaret had arranged with Bud to take her to the school-house the next morning , and he had promised to have a horse hitched up and ready at ten o'clock , as it seemed the school was a magnificent distance from her boarding-place . In fact , everything seemed to be located with a view to being as far from everywhere else as possible . Even the town was scattering and widespread and sparse .
