`` And Mary 's well ! '' `` Well -- ! You never saw anything like it . Yesterday she was out in the garden from eight o'clock until ten at night ! And she 's never alone , everyone in the neighborhood loves her -- !

Happiest of all the times away from home were those Susan spent with the Carrolls , or with Anna in the Hoffmanns ' beautiful city home .
