`` Why ! -- what ? '' exclaimed Carry suddenly . Patty wheeled about to see Carry staring at the silk dress like one bewitched . Between the silk and the lining which she had just ripped apart was a twenty-dollar bill , and beside it a sheet of letter paper covered with writing in a cramped angular hand , both secured very carefully to the silk . `` Carry Lea ! '' gasped Patty . With trembling fingers Carry snipped away the stitches that held the letter , and read it aloud . `` My dear Caroline , '' it ran , `` I do not know when you will find this letter and this money , but when you do it belongs to you . I have a hundred dollars which I always meant to give you because you were named for me . But Edward and his wife do not know I have it , and I do n't want them to find out . They would not let me give it to you if they knew , so I have thought of this way of getting it to you . I have sewed five twenty-dollar bills under the lining of this skirt , and they are all yours , with your Aunt Caroline 's best love . You were always a good girl , Carry , and you 've worked hard , and I 've given Edward enough . Just take this money and use it as you like . `` Aunt Caroline Greenley . '' `` Carry Lea , are we both dreaming ? '' gasped Patty . With crimson cheeks Carry ripped the other breadths apart , and there were the other four bills . Then she slipped down in a little heap on the sofa cushions and began to cry -- happy tears of relief and gladness .
`` We can pay the interest , '' said Patty , dancing around the room , `` and get yourself a nice new dress XXXXX the wedding . ''
