A Little Country Girl: Large Print

By: Coolidge, Susan

IT was on one of the cool, brilliant days which early June brings to the Narragansettcountry, that the steamer "Eolus" pushed out from Wickford Pier on her afternoon trip toNewport. The sky was of a beautiful translucent blue; the sunshine had a silvery ratherthan a golden radiance. A sea-wind blew up the Western Passage, so cool as to make thepassengers on the upper deck glad to draw their wraps about them. The low line of themainland beyond Conanicut and down to Beaver Tail glittered with a sort of clear-cutradiance, and seemed lifted a little above the water. Candace Arden heard the Captain saythat he judged, from the look of things, that there was going to be a change of weatherbefore long.Captain Peleg King was a great favorite on his line of travel. He had a pleasant, shrewd face, grizzled hair, a spare, active figure; and he seemed to notice every one of his passengersand to take an interest in them
