"What!" says Mona And then she grows quite pale, and, slipping off the stile, stands a few yards away from him. "You don't know what you are talking about," says Doatie, vehemently. "Every one of those interminable half-hours will be a year off your life. Mr. Boer is obnoxious, but Florence is simply insupportable. Wait till she begins about the choir, and those hateful school-children, and the parish subsidies; then you perhaps will learn wisdom, and grow headaches if you have them not. Violet, what is it Jack calls Mr. Boer?" "But I wish it had been any one but Mona," says Geoffrey, still agitated..
