Lily Norri's Enemy

If Lily Norris isn't just the most provoking child that ever lived! said Maggie Bradford indignantly.Yes I believe she just is assented Bessie.Why said Mrs. Rush who was that day making a visit to Maggie's and Bessie's mamma how is this? Lily was the most provoking child that ever lived! I thought Lily was one of your best friends and that you were so fond of her.Yes Aunt May so we are said Maggie. We're very fond of Lily indeed; she's one of our dear beloveds and we like to have her with us; but for all that she's very trying to our patience.Yes sighed Bessie I think she's trying than any child we know; and yet she's hardly ever naughty -really naughty I mean.How does she try you? asked Mrs. Rush though she believed she could herself have answered as to the cause of complaint.
