though of rather fitful and uncertain temper

  Luke paused in front of a three-story frame house in Green Street. He ascended the steps and opened the door, for this was the newsboy's home.  Chapter 2 A Letter From The Dead  In the entry Luke met a girl of fourteen with fiery red hair, which apparently was a stranger to the comb and brush. She was the landlady's daughter, and, though of rather fitful and uncertain temper, always had a smile and pleasant word for Luke, who was a favorite of hers.   "Well, Nancy, how's mother?" asked the newsboy, as he began to ascend the front stairs.   "She seems rather upset like, Luke," answered Nancy.   "What has happened to upset her?" asked Luke, anxiously.   "I think it's a letter she got about noon. It was a queer letter, all marked up, as if it had been travelin' round. I took it in myself, and carried it up to your ma. I stayed to see her open it, for I was kind of curious to know who writ it."   "Well?"   "As soon as your ma opened it, she turned as pale as ashes, and I thought she'd faint away. She put her hand on her heart just so," and Nancy placed a rather dirty hand of her own, on which glittered a five-cent brass ring, over that portion of her anatomy where she supposed her heart lay.   "She didn't faint away, did she?" asked Luke.
