POLLY PEPPER drew a long breath and stepped up on the flat stone before the parsonage door. Even then it was not too late to turn and run home! But Mamsie—oh, that would never do, for hadn’t Mrs. Pepper sent her with the blue bowl that had contained the little pat of butter, and her thanks for it! And if she, Polly, should turn her back on it all and run home, why, it would be such a dreadful thing and disgrace the Little Brown House forever. No, she must go through with it, and face Miss Jerusha, if, as she dreaded2, that lady should come to the door. So she lifted the big brass3 knocker, and let it fall with a clang.
 
Heavy steps sounded along the oil-cloth on the hall and the big door was thrown open. Yes, it was just as dreadful as she expected! There was the minister’s sister.
 
[318]“Go right away,” said Miss Jerusha, shaking a long, bony hand; “don’t you know any better’n to come to this door?”
 
“My mother sent me, and—” gasped4 Polly, with shaking fingers hanging fast to the little blue bowl.
 
“Your mother?—well, didn’t she know any better’n to have you come to this door?” broke in Miss Jerusha, with asperity6; “an’ who is she, anyway?” all in the same breath.
 
“She’s Mrs. Pepper, and oh—”
 
“Oh, are you one of those Pepper children who live in that old brown house all down at the heel?” interrupted Miss Jerusha.
 
“Yes,” said Polly, with a warm little throb7 at her heart. Wasn’t it just the dearest place on earth, and what would she give to be there now!
 
“Well, you go right away,” commanded the minister’s sister, decidedly. “You needn’t come begging here. I declare, if you hain’t brought a bowl this blessed minute.”
 
“Oh, we never begged in our lives,” cried Polly, in horror, every bit of color flying from her round cheek. Then she jumped off from the door-stone, only one thought possessing her,—to get to Mamsie.
