His mother had set a glass of milk on the table beside his bed, and left the stair door ajar so that he could call Hannah, the cook, if he wanted any thing, and then she had gone over to her own room. The little boy had always enjoyed being ill, for then he was read aloud to and had lemonade, but this had been a real illness, and though he was better now the doctor still would not let him have anything but milk and gruel. He was feeling rather lonely, too, though the fire crackled cheer fully, and he could hear Hannah singing to herself in the kitchen below.
