CHAPTER XIV 

RAISING THE TENT 

Toby went into the house, feeling rather uneasy because he had not been called; but when Aunt Olive told him that Abner had aroused from his slumber but twice, and then only for a moment, he had no idea of being worried about his friend, although he did think it a little singular he should sleep so long. 

That evening Dr. Abbot called again, although he had been there once before that day; and when Toby saw how troubled Uncle Daniel and Aunt Olive looked after he had gone, he asked; 

"You don't think Abner is goin' to be sick, do you?" 

Uncle Daniel made no reply, and Aunt Olive did not speak for some moments; then she said: 

"I am afraid he stayed out too long this morning; but the doctor hopes he will be better to-morrow." 

If Toby had not been so busily engaged planning for Abner to see the work next day, he would have noticed that the sick boy was not left alone for more than a few moments at a time, and that both Uncle Daniel and Aunt Olive seemed to have agreed not to say anything discouraging to him regarding his friend's illness. 

When he went to bed that night, he fancied Uncle Daniel's voice trembled, as he said: 

"May the good God guard and spare you to me, Toby, boy;" but he gave no particular thought to the matter, and the sandman threw dust in his eyes very soon after his head was on the pillow.
