The change in his father's circumstances had come so suddenly that Andy could not immediately decide upon a plan of securing employment. He was not idle, however.

Andy Grant's Pluck: Large Print By Horatio Alger A telegram for you, Andy!" said Arthur Bacon, as he entered the room ofAndy Grant in Penhurst Academy. "A telegram!" repeated Andy, in vague alarm, for the word suggested something urgent-probably bad news of some kind. He tore open the envelope and read the few words of the message: "Come home at once. Something has happened. "MOTHER." "What can it be?" thought Andy, perplexed. "At any rate, mother is well, for she sent the telegram." "What is it?" asked Arthur. "I don't know. You can read the telegram for yourself." "Must you go home?" asked Arthur, in a tone of regret. "Yes. When is there a train?" "At three this afternoon." "I will take it. I must go and see Dr. Crabb." "But won't you come back again?"
