Product Description
A young blind girl in a New England village, beloved because of her singing and her cheerful disposition, is kidnapped. Well, there!” said Miss Vesta. “The child has a wonderful gift, that is certain. Just listen to her, Rejoice! You never heard our canary sing like that!” Miss Vesta put back the shutters as she spoke, and let a flood of light into the room where Miss Rejoice lay. The window was open, and Melody’s voice came in like a wave of sound, filling the room with sweetness and life and joy. Miss Rejoice could see part of the yard from her bed. She could see the white lilac-bush, now a mass of snowy plumes, waving in the June breeze; she could see the road, and knew when any of the neighbors went to town or to meeting; but the corner from which the wonderful voice came thrilling and soaring was hidden from her.
