"What, David, back again!" he said, ignoring the question asked by Sarby. "So you did not stay to dinner?" "No!" said David, faintly, turning his face away. "At least not yet." Settled in their places—they already had their own selected places in the ingle nook—with Mrs. Shelly rocking contentedly in the center of the half circle and Bruce smoking in the deep armchair, they grew enthusiastic again over the delightful prospect of the month that Bruce outlined for them.
