Ruth Fielding At Sunrise Farm; Or, What Became of the Raby Orphans

A great deal happened at Sunrise Farm before these later occurrences which so delighted Ruth Fielding. The excitement of the loss of the six "fresh airs" was not easily forgotte...

Ruth did not sleep at all well that night. Luckily, Helen had nothing on _her_ mind or conscience, or she must have been disturbed by Ruth's tossing and wakefulness. The other t...

It was a fact that Ruth crouched back behind the log, fearful of the wrathful farmer. He was a big, coarse, high-booted, red-faced man, and he swung and snapped the blacksnake w...

The single gas jet burning at the end of the corridor was so dim and made so flickering a light that it added more to the shadows of the passage than it provided illumination. I...

Ruth did not remain at the window for more than a moment after seeing the girls engaged in the initiation disperse, and hearing their screams. She drew back from the crowding gr...

The four horses climbed briskly after that and brought the yellow coach to an old stone gateway. At the end of the Caslon farm the stone wall had begun, and now it stretched ahe...

Tom Cameron thought a great deal of Ruth, and for that reason alone was sorry he had not stayed the departure of the runaway girl, Sadie Raby, from the vicinity of Cheslow. Then...

"What's _heart_ got to do with eating?" grumbled the plump girl. "And I was thinking quite as much of the little girls here as I was of myself. Why! here is one of the poor kidd...

The girl visitors from Briarwood Hall did all they could to help the mistress of Sunrise Farm and Madge prepare for the evening festivities, and not alone in employing the atten...

Ruth was much interested in the fresh air children, and so was Helen. They found time to walk down to the Caslon farm and become acquainted with the entire twelve. Naturally, th...

The old clock that had hung in the Red Mill kitchen from the time of Uncle Jabez Potter's grandfather--and that was early time on the Lumano, indeed!--hesitatingly tolled the ho...

"It is not my intention to send you back. I mean to look up your record and the record of the people you were placed with--Perkins, is it? The authorities of the institution tha...

Ruth was determined to have her way, and really, after one has suffered with a felon for a week, one is in no shape to combat the determination of as strong a character as that...

Perhaps Sadie Raby would have been just as well pleased had Mr. Steele allowed her to go to the Caslons' to see her brothers, instead of having them brought up the hill to Sunri...

"I might have known that! I might have known it!" Ruth exclaimed when she heard this. "And if I'd only written you or Uncle Jabez about her, maybe you would have kept her till I...

Miss True Pettis thrilled with the joy of telling the romance. The little seamstress had been all her life entertaining people with the dry details of unimportant neighborhood h...

The goat just then shook his horns and charged. Ruth was not much behind her chum. She saw before Helen, however, that they were running right away from the Steele premises.

Of course, Ruth was not at all sure that she could do anything for Sadie Raby if she found her. Perhaps, as Helen said, she was fond of shouldering other people's burdens.

Mrs. Steele was first disturbed over her husband's condition. "Go right away and change into dry garments--do, Father," she urged. "You will get your death of cold standing ther...

The girls who had come to Sunrise Farm to visit at Madge Steele's invitation, felt no little responsibility when it came to the entertainment for the fresh air orphans. As The F...

"Oh, Tom!" shrieked Ruth, and seized the boy's arm. The bay horse was just plunging ahead, eager to be off for the stable and his manger. The high cart was whirled through the g...

Ruth heard Bob's last expression, despite the rattling of the harness and the chattering of the girls on, and in, the coach, and she was sorry. Yet, could he be blamed so much,...

Of course, somebody had to go to the Caslons and explain all this, and that duty devolved upon Ruth. Naturally, permission had to be sought of the farmer and his wife before the...

As it chanced, Mr. Steele's groom, who had been sent with the coach and who sat beside Bob, was on the wrong side to give any assistance at this crucial moment. To have jumped f...

"I hope you told that Caslon woman, Mother, to keep those brats from boiling over upon our premises," said Mr. Steele, cheerfully, at dinner that evening, when the story of the...
