`` Last week my landlady -- who is a saint in spectacles and calico -- looked at me one morning at the breakfast table and said , VERY gently , ` You must go to town to-morrow , Master , and see a doctor about yourself . ' `` I went and did not stand upon the order of my going . Mrs. Williamson is She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed . She has an inconvenient habit of making you realize that she is exactly right , and that you would be all kinds of a fool if you did n't take her advice . You feel that what she thinks to-day you will think to-morrow . `` In Charlottetown I consulted a doctor . He punched and pounded me , and poked things at me and listened at the other end of them ; and finally he said I must stop work ` immejutly and to onct ' and hie me straightway to a climate not afflicted with the north-east winds of Prince Edward Island in the spring . I am not to be allowed to do any work until the fall . Such was his dictum and Mrs. Williamson enforces it . `` I shall teach this week out and then the spring vacation of three weeks begins . I want you to come over and take my place as pedagogue in the Lindsay school for the last week in May and the month of June . The school year ends then and there will be plenty of teachers looking for the place , but just now I can not get a suitable substitute . I have a couple of pupils who are preparing to try the Queen 's Academy entrance examinations , and I do n't like to leave them in the lurch or hand them over to the tender mercies of some third-class teacher who knows little Latin and less Greek . Come over and take the school till the end of the term , you petted son of luxury . It will do you a world of good to learn how rich a man feels when he is earning twenty-five dollars a month by his own unaided efforts ! `` Seriously , Marshall , I hope you can come , for I do n't know any other fellow I can ask . The work is n't hard , though you 'll likely find it monotonous . Of course , this little north-shore farming settlement is n't a very lively place . The rising and setting of the sun are the most exciting events of the average day . But the people are very kind and hospitable ; and Prince Edward Island in the month of June is such a thing as you do n't often see except in happy dreams .
There are some trout in the pond and you 'll always find an old salt XXXXX the harbour ready and willing to take you out cod-fishing or lobstering .
