My friend, ' wrote Mr crewe, ' has some mines in northern India, and a month ago his workers found diamonds there. There are thousands of diamonds in these mines, but it is expensive work to get them out. My friend needs my help. SoLittle Missus' ( this was Mr Crewe' s special name for Sara) , ' I am putting all my money into my friend' s diamond mines, and one day you and Iare going to be very rich. . '
Sara was not interested in money, but a story about diamond mines in India was exciting. Nearly everybody was very pleased for Sara, but not Lavinia, of course.
