What Katy Did Next

Following Walter's recovery, Mrs. Ashe decides that she should have a vacation to Europe and asks that Katy be her travel companion.

Initially reluctant due to familial obligations, Katy is persuaded by her father to go and is given $300 for the trip.

A reunion of the Hillsover girls is organised in Rose's house with Mary Silver, Esther Dearborn, Ellen Gray, and Alice Gibbons in attendance.

Rose Red jokes that if Bella is scalped by the Indians, they will know her by her dreadful hair pomatum.

After they meet up, Katy departs on a steamer to England with the Ashes and following a journey where all three experience bouts of seasickness, they eventually come within view of the Irish Coast and start their trip in Europe.
