GEORGE FEELS GRATEFUL When George returned from Winnipeg, Edgar took him to the granary. "You may as well look at the seed Grant sent you, and then you'll be able to thank him for it," he said. "It's in here; I turned out the common northern stuff you bought to make room." "Why didn't you put it into the empty place in the barn?" George asked.
