“I’ll buy it,” said Grandfather.

“What?” cried the man.

“We can settle on the price when I see you,” said Grandfather again. “By the way, tell me your full name.”

“Well, my name is Elisha Morse. But I’m so surprised I don’t know my own name for sure. You coming here to live?”

“No, but my sister Jane is.”

“Well, well, well! This telephone call is costing you a lot of money. Better hang up.”

“All right,” said Grandfather. “We’ll be driving up soon to see my new farm.”

“It ain’t new. It’s old,” said the man.

“It’s new to me. I just bought it,” said Grandfather. “Good-by and thank you.”

Grandfather leaned back and laughed. He hung up the telephone. “Quick like a fox, Benny?” he said. “Is that what you wanted?”

“Grandfather, you are simply wonderful,” said Benny.

“Well, I had a bit of luck, I should say,” said Mr. Alden.

Everyone agreed. But it was Jessie, not Grandfather, who began to make plans right away.
