@@@@@ God's nightgown! Her aunt could lecture longer than a hellfire preacherdear Eleanor is unoerstandably concerned that ettfeh it nece'sary to travel all the way to Boston for the meeting about hisfrrtili she'menisHe should not have gone to the chill of the Northern climate immeolately after the ordeal of his long immersion in cold waterfrllowing the capsing of his boat Scarlett let the pages fall into her lapOf course! Oh, thank God That's why Rhett hadn't come after her yetWhy didn't Uncle Henry tell me Rhett's telegram came from Boston? Then I wouldn't have driven myself crazy expecting him to show up on the doorstep any minute Does Aunt Pauline say when he's coming back? Scarlett pawed through the jumble of letter sheetsWhere had she stopped? She found her place and read eagerly to the endBut there was no mention of what she wanted to knowNow what am I going to do? Rhett might be gone for weeksOr he might be on his way back right this very minute Scarlett picked up the invitation from MrsAt least it would be someplace to goShe'd have a screaming fit if she had to stay in this house day after dayIf only she could run over to Jamie's every now and then, just for a cup of teaBut no, that was unthinkableAnd yet, she couldn't not think of the O'HarasThe next morning she went with the sullen cook to the City Market to supervise what she bought and how much she paid for itWith nothing else to occupy her, Scarlett was determined to see her grandfather's house in orderWhile she was having coffee, she heard a soft hesitant voice speak her nameIt was lovely, shy young Kathleen"I'm not familiar with all the American fishes," she said"Will you help me choose the best prawns?" Scarlett was bewildered until the girl gestured toward the shrimp"The angels must have sent you, Scarlett," Kathleen said when her purchase was made
