The Running Away of Chester

 Chester did the chores with unusual vim1 that night. His lips were set and there was an air of resolution as plainly visible on his small, freckled2 face as if it had been stamped there. Mrs. Elwell saw him flying around, and her grim features took on a still grimmer expression.
 
"Ches is mighty3 lively tonight," she muttered. "I s'pose he's in a gog to be off on some foolishness with Henry Wilson. Well, he won't, and he needn't think it."
 
Lige Barton, the hired man, also thought this was Chester's purpose, but he took a more lenient4 view of it than did Mrs. Elwell.
 
"The little chap is going through things with a rush this evening," he reflected. "Guess he's laying out for a bit of fun with the Wilson boy."
 
But Chester was not planning anything connected with Henry Wilson, who lived on the other side of the pond and was the only chum he possessed5. After the chores were done, he lingered a little while around the barns, getting his courage keyed up to the necessary pitch.
 
Chester Stephens was an orphan6 without kith or kin7 in the world, unless his father's stepsister, Mrs. Harriet Elwell, could be called so. His parents had died in his babyhood, and Mrs. Elwell had taken him to bring up. She was a harsh woman, with a violent temper, and she had scolded and worried the boy all his short life. Upton people said it was a shame, but nobody felt called upon to interfere8. Mrs. Elwell was not a person one would care to make an enemy of.
 
She eyed Chester sourly when he went in, expecting some request to be allowed to go with Henry, and prepared to refuse it sharply.
 
"Aunt Harriet," said Chester suddenly, "can I go to school this year? It begins tomorrow."
