"I'm so glad you thought of phoning, Miss Pat," she said, taking her plate and cup from Bruce and seating herself by Miss Jinny.

I never was so mortified in all my life, and I scrambled to my feet and came over to the hedge to get between him and Billy. "In that case," said Etwald, rising, "I must take my leave, and shall be content with that answer until such time as you are free; then," he added, coolly, "I shall ask you again." "Thankee, sir.
