Joe's heart almost stopped beating. She tried to call Laurie, but her voice refused; She wanted to rush forward, but her feet were weak; For a moment she could only stand still, staring at the little blue hat on the black ice, her face changing colour with fear. Then a figure galloped past her, and Laurie cried out --" get a crossbar. Quick, quick!" She did not know how she did it, but for the next few minutes she listened blindly to Laurie as if she were possessed. Laurie, quite composed, lay down on his back and pulled Amy up with his arm and hockey stick. Amy was not badly hurt, but this surprise was no small matter.
"Come, we must hurry her home; Put our clothes on her till I take off my skates, "cried Laurie, tearing at the strings and wrapping Amy in her own overcoat.
They sent Amy home, shivering, with tears dripping down her face. After some confusion, Amy went to sleep in front of the warm fire, wrapped in a blanket. Joe said almost nothing during the whole time, but whirled about, his face white, his dress untidy, his skirt torn, and his hands bruised from the ice, the bars, and the hard buttons.
