The next morning, Emma thought about the ball as she
walked in the garden at Hartfield. She decided that it had
gone well. She had enjoyed dancing with Mr Knightley and
she was pleased that he had danced with Harriet.
Emma had decided that Frank Churchill was not in love
with her. Or perhaps he did love her - but only a little. The
summer would be a happy and interesting time.
Emma turned to walk back into the house and saw two
people com ing tow ards her - H arriet and Mr Frank
Churchill.
Harriet was crying and holding Mr Churchill’s arm. Emma
took them into the house, and made Harriet sit down. And
then the poor girl fainted70!
Frank Churchill quickly explained what had happened.
Harriet and another pupil from Mrs Goddard’s school had
been walking along a quiet little road. They had met a group
of gypsies71, who started asking the girls for money.
The other girl was very frightened. She screamed and ran
away. But Harriet was too tired after the ball. She did not
run. The gypsies were soon all around her. They shouted at
her and asked for money. Harriet gave them a coin, but they
wanted more and poor Harriet became very frightened.
At that moment, Frank Churchill came along the road
and saw everything. He was carrying a stick and very soon,
the gypsies were as frightened as Harriet had been. They ran
away and Frank had brought Harriet to Hartfield.
Frank Churchill could not stay after Emma had heard the
story. He had to return to the Churchills in Richmond.
Harriet spent the day at Hartfield with Emma and was
soon feeling much better.
What an adventure for Harriet Smith! She had been
badly frightened and then rescued by handsome Frank
Churchill! Emma did not want her father to hear the story.
But soon everyone in Highbury, including her father, knew
about it.
