Reprint of the original, first published in 1871.

Excerpt from Kathie's Aunt Ruth "Aunt Ruth, will you drive out in the pony-carriage?" asked Kathie one morning. "Uncle Robert thinks that I can manage the horses very well." Kathie looked so bright and winsome as she said this that Aunt Ruth smiled. "I think I must accept your invitation; the day is so very lovely that it will be a pleasure." Kathie was delighted. Since Uncle Robert had given the children the ponies, Rob had taken out his mother and Aunt Ruth quite often. He seemed, boy-like, to have a natural aptitude for driving, while Kathie was rather timid. Mr. Meredith and her uncle had given her daily instructions, however, and she had now become quite a skilful little horsewoman.
