As for the robins ' legs if robins have great , big , bare , sunburned legs , with ragged trousers hanging on 'em , such as I saw up in my cherry tree one morning at sunrise last week , I 'll beg the Gilman boys ' pardon . By the time I got down they were gone . I could n't understand how they had disappeared so quick , but Captain Jim has enlightened me . They flew away , of course . '' Captain Jim laughed and went away , regretfully declining an invitation to stay to supper and partake of cherry pie . `` I 'm on my way to see Leslie and ask her if she 'll take a boarder , '' Miss Cornelia resumed . `` I 'd a letter yesterday from a Mrs. Daly in Toronto , who boarded a spell with me two years ago . She wanted me to take a friend of hers for the summer . His name is Owen Ford , and he 's a newspaper man , and it seems he 's a grandson of the schoolmaster who built this house . John Selwyn 's oldest daughter married an Ontario man named Ford , and this is her son . He wants to see the old place his grandparents lived in . He had a bad spell of typhoid in the spring and has n't got rightly over it , so his doctor has ordered him to the sea . He does n't want to go to the hotel -- he just wants a quiet home place . I ca n't take him , for I have to be away in August . I 've been appointed a delegate to the W.F.M.S. convention in Kingsport and I 'm going . I do n't know whether Leslie 'll want to be bothered with him , either , but there 's no one else . If she ca n't take him he 'll have to go over the harbor . '' `` When you 've seen her come back and help us eat our cherry pies , '' said Anne . `` Bring Leslie and Dick , too , if they can come . And so you 're going to Kingsport ?
What a nice XXXXX you will have .
