So he accepted Lowe's invitation with many protestations of gratitude. When Lowe and Glink arrived at the Happyhurst station, they found that they would be obliged to walk to Lowe's house. There were only three or four feet of snow on the ground, and Glink was neither used nor adapted to walking at any considerable length through the drifts. However, after a few unpleasant experiences, they arrived at Lowe's house. The next twenty-four hours were a veritable nightmare to Glink. Mr. Lowe impressed the fact upon him that he should make the best of his opportunity to get plenty of exercise in the fresh country air. Poor Glink was obliged to work like a horse, shoveling snow, chopping wood and carrying coal. Owing to an unfortunate shortage in the household supplies, the meals consisted entirely of beans, cold beans. That night, Glink was routed out of his chilly bed and forced to go down and sleep on a mattress in the hall, owing to a sudden outbreak of chicken pox in a neighbor's house. The unaffected children had to have his bed. Glink was aroused from his new sleeping place by Lowe's children jumping playfully on his stomach. After Glink had been forcibly pressed into a sledding party whence he emerged with a badly scratched face, and after he had been drenched by a bursting pipe, he executed a maneuver technically known as "a quiet sneak" back to the peaceful city, where, rushing to a restaurant, he ordered everything on the menu except beans.
