"Do you really like it?" asks she, plainly delighted. This eulogy on the departing Larry she delivers with much unction, and a good deal of check apron in the corner of one eye. "You will be near too, Geoffrey?" murmurs Mona, falteringly. "I dare say," she says, carelessly, purposely mistaking his meaning: "it must have been cold lying there.".
