After tea Marco and Forester took a walk again to see the canal. They passed across the river on the aqueduct, and came out to the canal at the chequered house again. They then followed the canal up, going from lock to lock, as it gradually ascended along the bank of the river. They stood upon the bank at one of the locks, seeing a boat go through. It was about half past six o'clock, and a calm and pleasant evening. The boat was not a packet, but it had several passengers on board. There was a woman sitting upon the deck, forward, with a little child by her side. The woman was knitting. The child was playing with a little basket. "Cousin Forester," said Marco, "let us get aboard of that boat and go along the canal a little way." "Then how shall we get back?" said Forester. "Why, we can find some other boat coming back," replied Marco. "The boats are going and coming all the time." The boat was then in the lock, and was rising very rapidly, as the water boiled up under it from the passages which they had opened through the bottom of the upper gates. Marco was in great haste to have Forester decide in favor of going, so that he might jump on the boat and be bucyed up with it. So Forester went to the edge of the lock with him, and they both stepped on together. When the lock was full the upper gates were opened and the boat sailed along. Forester and Marco sat down near the woman and attempted to talk with her, but they found that she could not speak English. She was a German woman. The child was just learning to talk, and Marco was very much amused at hearing so small a child speaking a foreign tongue. Presently, Forester took out a piece of paper from his pocket-book and said that he was going to draw a view of..., 4, Children's Books, 2967, Action & Adventure, 3371, Activities, Crafts & Games, 2787, Animals, 2870, Arts, Music & Photography, 2351, Biographies, 3284, Cars, Trains & Things That Go, 2655476011, Children's Cookbooks, 2970, Classics, 3014, Comics & Graphic Novels, 2909, Computers & Technology, 7009080011, Early Learning, 3176, Education & Reference, 2977, Fairy Tales, Folk Tales & Myths, 3344091011, Geography & Cultures, 1084192, Growing Up & Facts of Life, 2917, History, 3069, Holidays & Celebrations, 3003, Humor, 2966, Literature & Fiction, 3016, Mysteries & Detectives, 3101, Religions, 3013, Science Fiction & Fantasy, 3207, Science, Nature & How It Works, 3400, Sports & Outdoors, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books<
