It 's a angel crying , or pointing up , or flapping his wings . They have them over graves ; and I 'll give you the biggest one I can find when you die . But I 'm not in a very great hurry to have you . '' `` Thankee , dear ; I 'm in no hurry , myself . But , Toady , the boy did wrong in giving his sister half ; she did n't deserve any ; and the grandma left word she was n't to have a penny of it . '' `` Really ? '' cried the boy , with a troubled face . `` Yes , really . If he gave her any he lost it all ; the old lady said so . Now what do you think ? '' asked Aunt Kipp , who found it impossible to pardon Polly , -- perhaps because she was young , and pretty , and much beloved . Toady 's eyes kindled , and his red cheeks grew redder still , as he cried out defiantly , -- `` I think she was a selfish pig , -- do n't you ? '' `` No , I do n't , sir ; and I 'm sure that little boy was n't such a fool as to lose the money . He minded his grandma 's wishes , and kept it all . '' `` No , he did n't , '' roared Toady , tumbling off his chair in great excitement . `` He just threw it out a winder , and smashed the old cherakin all to bits . '' Aunt Kipp dropped her work with a shrill squeak , for she thought the boy was dangerous , as he stood before her , sparring away at nothing as the only vent for his indignation . `` It is n't an interesting story , '' he cried ; `` and I wo n't hear any more ; and I wo n't have your money if I may n't go halves with Polly ; and I 'll work to earn more than that , and we 'll all be jolly together , and you may give your twenty thousand to the old rag-bags , and so I tell you , Aunt Kipp . '' `` Why , Toady , my boy , what 's the matter ? '' cried a mild voice at the door , as young Lamb came trotting up to the rescue .
`` Never you mind , Baa-baa ; I sha n't do it ; and it 's a mean shame Polly ca n't have half ; then she could marry you and be so happy , '' blubbered XXXXX , running to try to hide his tears of disappointment in the coat-skirts of his friend .
