Dorothy sat up and noticed that the house was not moving; nor was it dark, for the bright sunshine came in at the window, flooding the little room.

Then she sat upon a settee and watched the people dance.

Uncle Henry sat upon the doorstep and looked anxiously at the sky, which was even grayer than usual.

He ran about the room, now here, now there, barking loudly; but Dorothy sat quite still on the floor and waited to see what would happen.
