Capítulo 12, Página 15
"Mrs.
Rucastle
seemed
plain
in
mind
and
looks.
I
did
not
like
or
dislike
her.
She
was
nothing
special.
But
she
loved
her
husband
and
son
very
much.
Her
eyes
watched
them
all
the
time.
She
tried
to
help
them
with
everything.
He
was
kind
to
her
in
his
loud
way.
They
seemed
happy.
But
she
had
a
secret
sadness.
She
often
looked
very
sad
and
cried
sometimes.
I
thought
maybe
her
child
made
her
sad.
He
is
a
spoiled
and
mean
little
boy.
He
is
small,
but
his
head
is
big.
He
gets
angry
and
sulks
a
lot.
He
likes
to
hurt
small
animals.
I
do
not
want
to
talk
about
him,
Mr.
Holmes.
He
is
not
important
to
my
story."
"I
like
all
details,"
said
my
friend,
"even
if
they
do
not
seem
important
to
you."
"I
will
try
to
tell
everything
important.
One
bad
thing
in
the
house
was
the
servants.
There
are
two,
a
man
and
his
wife.
Toller
is
the
man's
name.
He
is
rough
and
messy.
He
smells
like
drink.
He
was
drunk
twice,
but
Mr.
Rucastle
did
not
care.
His
wife
is
tall
and
strong
with
an
unfriendly
face.
She
is
quiet
like
Mrs.
Rucastle
but
not
nice.
They
are
not
nice
people.
I
stay
in
the
nursery
and
my
room
most
of
the
time.
They
are
next
to
each
other."
"For
two
days
after
I
arrived
at
the
Copper
Beeches,
life
was
quiet.
On
the
third
day,
Mrs.
Rucastle
whispered
to
her
husband
after
breakfast."
"'Oh,
yes,'
he
said
to
me,
'we
thank
you,
Miss
Hunter,
for
cutting
your
hair.
It
looks
good.
Now,
we
will
see
the
blue
dress
on
you.
It
is
on
your
bed.
Please
put
it
on.
We
would
be
very
happy.'"
"The
dress
was
a
strange
blue
color.
It
was
good
fabric,
but
it
was
worn
before.
It
fit
me
very
well.
Mr.
and
Mrs.
Rucastle
were
happy
about
it.
They
waited
for
me
in
the
drawing-room.
It
is
a
big
room
with
three
long
windows.
A
chair
was
near
the
middle
window.
They
asked
me
to
sit
there.
Mr.
Rucastle
told
funny
stories.
I
laughed
a
lot.
Mrs.
Rucastle
did
not
laugh.
She
looked
sad
and
worried.
After
an
hour,
Mr.
Rucastle
said
it
was
time
to
work.
I
changed
my
dress
and
went
to
little
Edward
in
the
nursery."
"Two
days
later,
we
did
the
same
thing
again.
I
changed
my
dress
and
sat
in
the
window.
Mr.
Rucastle
told
funny
stories.
I
laughed
a
lot.
Then
he
gave
me
a
book
and
moved
my
chair.
He
asked
me
to
read
to
him.
I
read
for
ten
minutes.
Then
he
told
me
to
stop
and
change
my
dress."
"Mr.
Holmes,
I
was
curious
about
this
strange
thing.
They
always
turned
my
face
away
from
the
window.
I
wanted
to
see
what
was
behind
me.
My
mirror
was
broken.
I
had
an
idea.
I
hid
a
piece
of
glass
in
my
handkerchief.
Next
time,
I
put
the
handkerchief
to
my
eyes
and
saw
behind
me.
At
first,
I
saw
nothing.
Then
I
saw
a
man
on
the
road.
He
was
small
with
a
beard
and
a
grey
suit.
He
looked
at
me.
The
road
is
busy,
but
this
man
looked
up
at
me.
I
put
down
my
handkerchief.
Mrs.
Rucastle
looked
at
me.
She
knew
I
had
a
mirror.
She
got
up
right
away."
