Good gracious! fancy my forgetting it! Why, it might have gone off and killed me, and I should have been none the wiser." "If I am, Warden surely knows more about the will than he has sworn to." "Well, do not preach such doctrine to Geoffrey," she says, with repentance mixed with pathos. "Because"—with a quick blush—"I am not accustomed to dancing much.
