"Well, as I say, I shall soon," returns Mona, brightening, "because Geoffrey has promised to teach me."

"I went up the avenue, and then out on the road for about half a mile." "I don't know, I'm sure; but really the way you expressed yourself, and——Yes, of course, Spice will be company, the very best company for you.".
