"Does she wish poor old Geoff had married a bad one? I confess myself at fault.","And see what we gained by our haste," says Dorothy, smiling at Mona. "You can't think what a charming sight it was.

A discreet hint must also be thrown out that anyone not so fortunate as to be the possessor of a spare carrot could bring silver.,"Poor ol' beggar," he said gently.,"I wonder who it could have been," they both murmured as they went upstairs to their rooms.,"First impressions are always best, I find," she said sagely. "I won't believe I've been mistaken till I have to. What did she do that made you dislike her?",The sun shone brightly and the atmosphere had that brilliant clarity, peculiar to the prairie.
