`` She always used to give me candies when she came to church . But Di is afraid of her . '' `` Her brows are so black and she has such a great deep voice , '' said Di . `` Oh , how scared of her Kenneth Ford used to be when he was little ! Mother says the first Sunday Mrs. Ford brought him to church Miss Ellen happened to be there , sitting right behind them . And the minute Kenneth saw her he just screamed and screamed until Mrs. Ford had to carry him out . '' `` Who is Mrs. Ford ? '' asked Una wonderingly . `` Oh , the Fords do n't live here . They only come here in the summer . And they 're not coming this summer . They live in that little house ` way , ` way down on the harbour shore where father and mother used to lie . I wish you could see Persis Ford . She is just like a picture . '' `` I 've heard of Mrs. Ford , '' broke in Faith . `` Bertie Shakespeare Drew told me about her . She was married fourteen years to a dead man and then he came to life . '' `` Nonsense , '' said Nan . `` That is n't the way it goes at all . Bertie Shakespeare can never get anything straight .
I know the whole story and I 'll tell it to you some time , but not now , for it 's too long and it 's time for us XXXXX go home .
