"I think it would be perfectly glorious," she said gratefully. "It's wonderful that you should bother with us. I can't thank you——" Miss Jinny shook her head. "I always was bent on sea-life and I know a lot about it. I can swap tales that'll make them believe I'm the only genuine Sinbad, and I wouldn't miss the chance for a mint," she said conclusively. Doris Leighton, with a rather flushed face, leaned forward as Patricia spoke and touched her on the shoulder. "Can't she let the poor man rest in his grave?" said Jen, wrathfully.
