Violet, coming in a few moments later, finds them still discussing the all-important theme. "Well, really, do you know, I think she did!" says Mona, so demurely that they all smile again. "Well, now," they replied; "we have those animals, how are we to kill them?" "I hope she isn't in love with you," she says, slowly..
